It is now just one week until registration will be open for FLOODrisk 2016 and we are very excited about meeting you all in Lyon! As a presenting author of an oral presentation we thought you should know what to expect and what to prepare in advance. Registration will open at 14:00 local time on Monday 17th October and will be open every day of the conference should you only be attending one day. When you register you will be asked for your name in order for us to find your details and issue the delegates pack and name badge. If you can bring a copy of your invoice that would greatly help the process.

Full instructions for speakers can be found here - http://floodrisk2016.net/assets/dms/ChairInstructions.pdf but in addition, at the reception desk, you will be asked for a copy of your powerpoint presentation and a short bio. To speed up the registration process you may submit these prior to the conference by emailing the presentation and bio to info@floodrisk2016.net, including your submission reference in the subject.

You should already have seen the detailed programme with your allocated session but if not you can find it here - http://floodrisk2016.net/programme/detailed-programme/. A chair person will be present to coordinate and allow for questions. You can also find additional information about special sessions, side events and poster presentations taking place during the week on that page.

I hope any other questions you have can be answered via our website where we have useful information regarding the venue and travel - http://floodrisk2016.net/venue--accommodation/location/. Should you have any additional questions please email info@floodrisk2016.net.

Have a safe trip to Lyon and we look forward to seeing you all next week!
