A limited number of single and shared rooms have been preliminary booked by the organisers at Rungstedgaard (the venue where the Brain Conference takes place). Participants will be provided with a link where they can proceed with the booking and payment of accommodation at Rungstedgaard if they so choose. Participants who wish to share a room can indicate a roommate in the booking form, or if travelling alone they will be randomly paired with a roommate of the same gender.

We recommend booking your accommodation well in advance, as there are limited rooms available and June is a busy season.
