Social events
You may choose to participate in only one of the following social events. Details to help you select from the list are given at our Social Events page. Please note that some of the options may get fully booked, and thus be no longer available (even though still listed).

Method of payment
Please indicate your preferred method of payment. Your choice below may be changed (when needed) at any time before the actual money transfer, but helps us watching out where to expect your fees. All payment details will be provided in a PDF-file once your registration is completed.
Credit Cards: We can only accept VISA, MasterCard or American Express cards. Unfortunately, we cannot accept electronic credit card payments. Please complete the credit card form (PDF-file to download on next page) and FAX it to us.
Bank Transfer: Bank details will be provided after registration. Note that bank fees will likely apply if you transfer from outside of Germany (in theory there should be a special form for free transfer within EU-countries, but in practice this special form is often difficult to find).
Debit cards: The cheapest way (for you and for us) is encachment via your Maestro (or similar debit) card: send the card details via FAX, and we charge the debit card. In comparison, even within the EU the bank transfer comes with bank fees (for the addressee). In case of bank transfer, be sure to make reference to "GRB2012".
On-Site payment: While cash, Maestro and Credit Card are possible, this method is depreciated, since we have to cover all expenses before your arrival.
All financial details will be treated strictly confidentially by our administration within the Max-Planck Institute (no external company involved). Thus, privacy is guaranteed.
