For IAUS405 participants we prepared a rich accompanying social program, including the Welcome cocktail, Conference dinner, sightseeing tour, and the concert full of beautiful Czech and Moravian music. In addition, participants can plan various free-time activities to enjoy Brno and its surroundings even more.
Based on the Scientific Organizing Committee evaluation of the submitted contributions, the preliminary program of the IAU Symposium 405 was published, which can be looked through interactively at https://gc2026.muni.cz/programme, including talk abstracts. We also published the current list of posters at https://gc2026.muni.cz/programme/posters.
IAUS405 LOC members - Monika Viskotová and Michal Zajaček - prepared the workshop "Black holes under the magnifying glass" for about 30 high-school students within the CzecHopes 2026 event organized on the premises of the Faculty of Science, Masaryk University.
