PROGRAM

This year we will go back to the basics, meaning that we will focus 
on the presentation of new and original research results. Only few 
symposia will be organized - see our website for details. There will 
be an exciting conference diner** and many social and cultural events.


AUTHOR GUIDELINES

See website, but note that, in order to reduce the cost of 
publishing, special attention will be given to lay-out and language. 
"Bat Engwish" can be a reason for rejection.


PROCEEDINGS

Accepted contributions will be published in the journal Perception 
<http://www.perceptionweb.com/>http://www.perceptionweb.com/.


EXHIBITORS

Special care has been given to make sure that exhibitions are located 
in an interactive central area. Please contact the organisation for 
details**.


We hope to see you in Utrecht,

On behalf of the organising committee,

Frans Verstraten, coordinator.

** More information will be added at a later stage.
