Tampere Cosmology Meeting 11.-12.5.2023


General information

The Tampere Cosmology Meeting for cosmologists from the Helsinki and Jyväskylä Universities will be organised again after a few years break. The meeting will be held on 11.-12.5. at the Scandic Tampere Koskipuisto hotel. This event is intended as an annual get-together with a relaxed program, offering plenty of time for discussions over coffee and lunch breaks.

Registration

You can register by sending email to Sami Nurmi . The deadline for the registration is 26.4.

The talks in this event are reserved for students and postdocs. Please indicate upon the registration if you are willing to give a talk and, if possible, give also a tentative title of your presentation. The reserved slot for each talk is by default 20 minutes + 5 minutes for discussion. If the timetable allows, we may also be able to accommodate some 30+5 minute talks. If you would wish to give a longer talk, please state that in your registration email.

Accommodation and arrival information

The meeting is held at the Scandic Tampere Koskipuisto hotel. We will book the rooms in advance for you but each participant should pay themselves for their accommodation at the departure. The hotel is within a short walking distance from the railway station, see the map for directions.
