> 1) What is the goal of this conference?
> We give you the opportunity to practice giving a conference talk  
> about your research.
> We also try to establish connections between students interested in  
> the same areas, in
> order to inspire subsequent collaboration. At the end of the  
> conference, you will have a
> better idea about what people in the same career stage as you are  
> working on.
>
> 2) Who can participate?
> The conference is for graduate students or young postdocs.

> first.
> We do have funding, but most likely not enough to support everybody.
>
> We will try to give as many students as possible support for travel  
> expenses.
> (Last year we covered up to $250.) We definitely will NOT offer  
> financial support
> for lodging or meals. Instead, we will offer the possibility to stay  
> with graduate students in Madison.
>
> When you fill out the registration form, indicate if you want to  
> apply for funding. Again:
> We cannot guarantee funding, but we will try our best.
