Welcome again!

As you all know, the ANMA meeting in Reykjavik in May was postponed because of ash clouds from the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajřkull

We have looked for alternative dates in the autumn, and the only possibilities is from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday 5-7 of September. The return from Iceland will be possible Wednesday morning. We hope the dates will be convenient for as many as possible.

For those of you who would like to experience the beautiful and untouched nature of Iceland, we recommend you to enjoy the island during the weekend previous to the conference. We will organize a special adventure trip on Sunday afternoon. More information will be available

We recommend that you make your hotel reservation as soon as possible – the same hotel as announced earlier:
