Venue
The R and BioConductor for Genomic Data Analysis workshop on October 6 - 10 will take place at the Center for Biological Sequence Analysis (CBS) at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Room is to be confirmed. DTU is located in Lyngby, 10 km north of Copenhagen. Transport
You can get to DTU in Lyngby by car or by public transportation. Several busses stop almost at the door and Lyngby Station is just 3 km away with even more bus connections. Copenhagen Metro travels from the airport to Nørreport Station in the centre of Copenhagen. There is a service every 4 minutes. In addition, there is a train service every 20 minutes from the Copenhagen Airport train station to Nørreport. At Nørreport Station, bus no. 150 S leaves approximately every ten minutes and stops at DTU. Alternatively, you can take the s-train (S-tog) from Copenhagen Central Station in the direction of Hillerød and Holte (line B or E). Both those trains will stop at Lyngby station from where you can get the bus 300 S in the direction of Nærum/Kokkedal and get off at DTU. In either case, a combined bus/train/metro ticket can be bought from the airport S-train counter for about DKK 70. A taxi ride from Copenhagen Airport to DTU costs around DKK 400 and takes from 30 minutes. From the centre of Copenhagen to DTU, a taxi ride also takes about 30 minutes and costs approximately DKK 200.
Accommodation
Participants' accommodation will not be pre-booked; thus, the participants must ensure that they make these bookings themselves in good time. In Lyngby, Hotel Scandic Eremitage is the closest situated hotel to DTU. If you prefer staying in central Copenhagen it is worthwhile to check out this website where cheaper accommodation can be found. If you book accommodation in Copenhagen, we recommend that you find a hotel close to Copenhagen central station or Nørreport station, from where transport to Lyngby is easy.
Costs BioSys provides coffee, tea, cookies and soft drinks during breaks. Lunch can be bought in the central canteen at DTU. However, on Tuesday the 7th there will be free sandwiches for lunch just before the main workshop (BioConductor) begins. A free workshop dinner will also be arranged on Wednesday evening. Travel, transport and accommodation costs are at participants' own expense.
