The applicant should mention the following:
Personal information.
The Organizing committee affirms that the personal information collected
in the registration pages will be treated with the strictest confidentiality.
The information collected is meant for communication with the applicant
and for statistical purposes only. No part or whole will be given to
third parties, including EMBL and conference sponsoring companies. After
completion of the logistics of the symposium, this information will
be discarded.

Registration procedure.
The registration procedure has to be completed in steps. First, the
applicant is asked about general information on his/her participation
in the conference. This information will be reviewed by the organizing
committee, which will decide about admittance of the applicant to the
symposium. Upon refusal, all personal information about the applicant
will be eventually discarded, except in cases where the applicant is
put on a waiting list.
Upon acceptance, the applicant will be asked to give information about
travel and accommodation arrangements. This information will be accessible
for revisions and updates until the deadline for confirmation of attendance
is met. After this deadline, no changes or refundable cancellations
will be possible
Security issues. The information
entered in the registration pages is transmitted to us by an encrypted
secure connection. This effectively means that no people or third parties
can see the information sent to us. If in doubt about security issues,
the applicant is encouraged to contact us at phd.symposium@embl-monterotondo.it
Payment procedure, credit card information
and security issues. During the registration procedure,
the applicant will be asked to choose a mode of payment for the participation
fee and the optional accommodation. Payment can only be made by a valid
credit card or direct bank transfer. The organizing committee reserves
the right to turn down applicants. Especially in cases when no valid
credit card number or alternative means of payment is made available.
We accept payment by American Express, Diner’s Club, Visa and
MasterCard. The credit card information is transmitted by an encrypted
secure connection. In addition credit card information is stored in

Travel documents and visas.
Prior to traveling to Italy, some applicants from certain countries
may have to acquire special travel documents, such as a visa. Applicants
are strongly encouraged to check with the local Italian Authorities
(Embassies or Consulates) about the need of special traveling documents.
Since the process may be time consuming, applicants are advised to make
such arrangements as soon as possible. Failure to obtain a visa after
the deadline for participation in the conference will not result in
a refund.
Applicants are responsible for providing the right documentation needed
for their entry to Italy. However, upon request, the Organizing Committee
can issue a formal letter of acceptance to the symposium for obtaining
a visa. The organizing committee can not be held responsible in the
case of a refusal by Italian authorities to enter Italian territory.
Deadlines and cancellation.
The Organizing Committee reserves the right to make changes to deadlines
or to cancel the conference. In the event of cancellation, all funds
processed until that moment will be returned, and personal information
collected will be discarded.
In the event of changes to deadlines, these changes will be communicated
in the symposium web page or by other means possible.
