TFRN-7
This page provides information on the TFRN-7 meeting and associated panel meetings and workshops.
Registration
A link to registration can be found here, however please note that you will need to choose which meetings to attend AND any accommodation needs, plus any excursions you may want to take - so please review the information on these pages before starting your registration. YOU WILL ALSO NEED YOUR PASSPORT DETAILS IF YOU REQUIRE AN INVTIATION LETTER, TO APPLY FOR A VISA.
Due to the time it takes to process visa applications, registration is set to close on the 20th January. It will be possible to register after this time, but you may not be able to obtain a visa in the remaining time, therefore we cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred if you cannot then travel. However if you are very short of time, some fast-track application services exist, for extra cost, but you would need to investigate these within your country.
Overview Agenda
Meetings will run from 9am until 5pm unless stated otherwise.

Visa
Most participants will require a visa, to obtain which you will need an invitation letter and probably proof of medical insurance specifically within Russia. Please indicate when you register that you will require an invitation letter to apply for a visa and you will be sent this invitation letter by either the host institute or our conference organizing company 'APEX' (depending on which country you come from). In ALL cases, you will need to scan and send a copy of the PHOTO page of your passport to nii@sp.ru
(to make sure there are no errors in the invitation letter). If you are coming from the 'Schengen' area, when you contact your Russian Embassy, there should be no charge for your visa.
Proceedings
A proceedings booklet, from the workshops and expert panels, will be produced - more information can be found here.
