Join us in Cambridge for an ICAP satellite conference on Cold Atoms and Molecules for Fundamental Physics.
Monday 22nd July to early afternoon on Wednesday 24th July
The conference programme will contain invited talks, contributed talks, and a poster session.

Registration
The conference fee is £240 and includes coffee breaks, lunches on each day and a conference dinner on Tuesday evening.
Accommodation and breakfast are not included and must be booked separately. You are very welcome to register for this event independently of attending the main ICAP conference; both conferences must be registered and paid for separately.
Every applicant is encouraged to bring a poster, and during registration you can submit the poster abstract and indicate whether you would like to be considered for a contributed talk.
Registration form:

After the successful registration you will receive a link to a payment form for the conference fee (payable via e.g. credit card) and a link to a dedicated page to book accommodation in Jesus college.
Registration closes on Friday 14th June, although we encourage early registration to avoid disappointment.
There might be the possibility for discounts for a small number of participants, in particular students, where this is essential to enable participation.
Please contact us under ICAPsatellite@phy.cam.ac.uk for all enquiries.
Accommodation
We have reserved a contingent of rooms in Jesus college and will sent further information after registration.
