The conference will be held at the Institute of Astronomy and the adjoining Kavli Institute for Cosmology Cambridge.

Internet Access

Internet access during the conference will be most easily achieved using eduroam:

Like many research and academic institutions worldwide, the IoA uses eduroam and we encourage participants to setup an account with their home institution if they do not have one already.

For those unable to use eduroam, we will issue wifi accounts at the registration desk.
