EMBO Practical course 2009 - Venue

12-17, October 2009
EBI-EMBL, Hinxton, Cambridge, UK

The course is organised by the European Bioinformatics Institute (an outstation of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory) under auspices of EMBO and will be held in the new EBI IT training room. It is worth noting that the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus is located in the countryside. For shopping or other entertainment it is necessary to go to Cambridge city centre.

Getting to the Genome Campus

The EBI is located on the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus at Hinxton, near Cambridge, UK. Despite our Cambridge address, we are actually about 9 miles from the centre of Cambridge in new buildings built in the grounds of an old country house, Hinxton Hall. The campus, which is owned by the Wellcome Trust, currently hosts the EBI and The Sanger Institute, as well as conference facilities and accommodation.

Full details of travel information (including roadmaps) is available on the EBI site, as well as information on the Genome Campus itself.
