On-site registration of participants takes place on Sunday, 11 July, from 14:00to 18:30 in the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry, Praha 6, Heyrovského nám. 2; and continues the next day from 8:30. The Microsymposium Office will operate on 12-15 July (Monday through Thursday) from 08:30to 12:30and (except Wednesday) from 13:30 to 16:00.
All participants must register. Only persons wearing name badges are entitled to enter the lecture room in the Institute.
No exchange counter operates in the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry. Information about the nearest exchange office is available at the Registration Desk and on the website.
On-site cash payment of the registration fee is considered as payment after 30 April. The P.M.M. Secretariat accepts EC/MC, EDC/Maestro and VISA cards at the Registration Desk.
The registration fee does not include provisions for any kind of insurance. Neither the organizing institution nor their representatives assume responsibility or liability for personal accident and loss of or damage to belongings however caused.
Accommodation for most participants has been reserved in the Hvězda student dormitory, Praha 6, Zvoníčkova 5. Payment of the booked accommodation is to be made at the Registration Desk. Accommodation includes breakfast, which will be served in the "Větrník" refectory from 07:00 to 08:30.
The main lecturers are accommodated in the Academy residence "Villa Lanna", Praha 6, V Sadech 1.
Participants are kindly requested to leave the rooms on the day of their departure by 10:00.
In Prague, an integrated transport system (underground Metro, trams, and buses) operates without conductors. Tickets must be purchased in advance (exceptions are given below) and stamped inside tram or bus, or before passing the gates of the Metro.
Most Metro stations are equipped with ticket machines. In buses and tram No 2, the most common 60-min tickets can be bought at the driver, but with additional charge of 3 Kč and for the exact change only. Tickets for 8 Kč for a single 15-min journey by tram or bus, or four-stop journey by Metro as well as transfer tickets for 12 Kč for a 60-min journey (90 min at night and on weekends) by all means of transport are on sale at the airport, at railway stations, newspaper stands and tobacco shops, at hotel reception desks, etc. The Metro runs from 05:00till midnight.
From the Hvězda student dormitory, take any of buses No. 179, 184 or 191 (direction of Petřiny or Letiště Ruzyně) to the "Petřiny" stop (3 stops). You can also walk through Zeyerova Alej St.(along the high-voltage line) to the Institute (600 m).
From the Academy residence, walk uphill along the Pelléova St. to the Pod Kaštany St. (2nd crossing), cross the Pod Kaštany St. and continue to the subway of "Hradčanská" metro station. Take tram No. 1 or 38 (direction of Petřiny) as far as the terminus "Petřiny".
For more detailed and topical description, see the WWW page (https://www.imc.cas.cz/sympo/ginfo/). The map of Prague is available at http://mapy.atlas.cz.
The Hvězda student dormitory is located at the crossing of Ankarská, Zvoníčkova, Brunclíkova and Zeyerova Alej streets. The nearest bus stop is "Nad Markétou", which is located 50 m from the dormitory (150 m from its reception). The nearest tram stops are "Vypich" (500 m), "Větrník" (700 m), "Obchodní dům Petřiny" (500 m).
From the Institute, you can either walk through Zeyerova Alej St. (along the high-voltage line) to the student dormitory (600 m), or take any of buses No. 179, 184, 191 (direction of Nové Butovice or Na Knížecí) to the "Nad Markétou" stop (2 stops). The student dormitory is opposite to the stop.
From the Institute or the Hvězda student dormitory, take bus No. 191 in direction of Na Knížecí as far as Anděl (12 stops / 18 min from the Institute) and change for tram No 12 in direction of Palmovka or 20 in direction of Divoká Šárka. Get off at the fourth stop (Hellichova; 6 min), and turn to the left at the next conner, and go straight on (ca 50 m).
You can also take any tram (1,2,38) to Metro (9 stops, 13 min), take Metro in direction of Skalka as far as Malostranská. From there, take tram 12 or 20 in direction of Sídliště Barrandov, or 22 in direction of Nádraží Hostivař. Get off at the second stop (Hellichova, 4 min), walk forward as far as the next corner, turn to the right and go straight on (ca 50 m).
From the Hvězda student dormitory, you can simply take tram 22 in direction of Nádraží Hostivař either to Pohořelec (7 stops, 9 min) and walk about 1300 m through the park, or get off just at Hellichova (20 stops, 33 min).
Taxis can be hired at the airport or the railway stations. The fare is max. 22 Kč per kilometre and 30 Kč is the boarding fee within the city boundaries (2004 prices). We recommend checking the fare before entering a taxi.
A special bus will bring the participants from the Vila Lanna to the Institute in the morning only; the departure times are given on the notice board at the Registration Desk.
Praguehas direct air links with most capitals in Europeand with many overseas countries. The international airport Praha is situated about 20 km from the city centre (9 km from the Institute). To reach the airport, we recommend bus No. 179 from the Institute and Hvězda student dormitory, bus No. 119 for connection from the "Dejvická" Metro station (line A) or bus No. 100 from "Zličín" metro station (line B). Bus fare: 12 Kč (see Public transport above).
Buses operated by the CEDAZ Co. run to the airport from the city terminal near the Metro station "Náměstí Republiky" (line B) in 30-min intervals. Bus fare: 90 Kč.
