Dear Participants of the MFUniverse Conference,
Please read carefully the contents of this last announcement before the

The timetable is as follows:

FIRST BUS: departs from the National Observatory (R. General José Cristino, 77, http://www.on.br/institucional/index.html) at 11:30 AM and arrives at the International Airport at NOON. The bus will stop at the EXIT OF THE TERMINAL 1. Those arriving at terminal 2 should walk (indoors) to terminal 1 (it is a 10 minute-walk). There will be people from the LOC with signs of the MFUniverse Conference in both terminals and at the parking area. In the case you don’t see one of these people or signs, just go to the indicated place.

VAN (LAST SHUTTLE): departs from the airport (same location) at: 19 HS.

To those participants who are not going to use these special buses of the conference, we remind you that the easiest way to drive safely to Angra dos Reis is to take a taxi (less than 100 US$). You may order one at the information desk in the airport and go straight to the Hotel of the conference in Angra dos Reis.

The BUS will depart from the Vila Mariana Subway Station (Parking area) at 10:00 AM and go straight to the hotel do Frade in Angra dos Reis.

The VAN will pass by the Guarulhos International Airport at 12:45 HS.
It will stop at the EXIT OF THE TERMINAL 1. Likewise, there will be a person from the LOC with a sign of the MFUniverse Conference. The next stop of the VAN will be the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Epaciais (INPE), in Sao Jose dos Campos (arrival time around 13:45 HS); and after that it will go straight to the hotel of the conference in Angra dos Reis.

On Friday, December 3, the buses will leave the Hotel to the same
destinations in Rio and Sao Paulo at 14:00 HS.


TALKS AND POSTERS:

We will have LCD equipment and a laptop for power-point presentations and also overhead projectors available. The speakers may bring their laptops as well, however, to avoid the extra time for setting the laptop presentations we strongly recommend to all the speakers to bring copies of their presentations in CDs, pencil drivers (with USB ports), etc., so that we can install the presentations in the available equipment before the start of the sessions.

The space available for each POSTER will be: 90 cm (width) X 120 cm (length).
