The main talks will be taking place at the Linus Pauling Science Center, or briefly LPSC, room 125. (The official address of the building is 2900 SW Campus Way, Corvallis, OR 97331.)

Short talks will take place in LPSC 125 and also in the building next door, Withycombe Hall, room 109 (official address is 2901 SW Campus Way Corvallis, OR 97331).

The lecture rooms are each equipped with an LCD projector and white boards.

LPSC is a 15 minute walk from the Garden Inn. Note that if we made the reservation for you, or you used the link we emailed you to reserve, then breakfast is included with your reservation at the Garden Inn. However, there will also be bagels (with spreads), muffins, coffee (can and decaf), and tea in LPSC.
