Welcome to the page of the LISA Spain Meeting 2025.
This is the second (first in Barcelona 2024) in a series of meetings devoted to the organisation and scientific collaboration of Spain-based researchers working or interested in the LISA mission.
It will take place on the 23rd and 24th of October 2025, in the CSIC Auditorium. The meeting will have an in-person format.
Registration and call for abstracts
Registration is open until the 19th of September, and there is no registration fee. All participants are welcome to submit abstracts. We will try to accommodate slots for the largest possible number of speakers.
How to reach the venue
The CSIC Auditorium finds itself in the main CSIC building ("Sede Central"), at Calle Serrano 117, 28006 Madrid. That is a well connected location in central Madrid, easily reachable by public transport.
With subway (Metro), the closest station is República Argentina (line 6) at 5 mins walking distance, and Nuevos Ministerios (line 6, line 8 connecting to Barajas Airport, and line 10 connecting to Chamartín train station) at 15 min walking distance. During the time of the meeting, line 6 may be undergoing construction works and in that case be replaced by a bus line (SE6).
Alternatively, there is an even closer bus stop, Residencia de Estudiantes, for bus lines 16, 19 and 51; alternatively, use Serrano-María de Molina for bus line 9.
In order to pay for both Metro and Bus, the easiest option is to pop into the closest metro station and use one of the ticket machines to buy a transit card (Tarjeta de Transporte Público) and top it up with a 10-trips pass. See instructions instructions here (you can request a ticket for reimbursement at payment).
If you are only traveling via bus, you can pay with a contactless credit or debit card, but the fare will be significantly higher.
Accommodation in Madrid
Accommodation is to be arranged by the participants on an individual basis. Madrid has a large accommodation offer and is well interconnected by public transport, so any option within the city limits should work, preferably within walking distance or along the Metro line 6.
The present meeting is organised by the LISA-Madrid Group of the LISA Consortium, formed by members of the Instituto de Estructura de la Materia (IEM-CSIC) and the Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT UAM-CSIC).
