The 4th ICDRA Newsletter
To inform you of the final programme for both conference and pre-conference we are sending you the 4th ICDRA Newsletter, the last one before the conference.
We have compiled some useful information regarding your travelling and would like to remind you of our special "dressing code" in traditional costume of your respective country at the Gala Dinner on Thursday evening, 18 September 2008. The dressing code in traditional costume is - of course - voluntary but we would like to encourage everybody to follow the ICDRA 2008 Organising Office that will be dressed in traditional Swiss finery.
