Welcome to the q-bio Summer School and Conference!

First q-bio Summer School: Classrooms

From Q-bio

Back to The First q-bio School.

Unless posted otherwise, all summer school classes will be held at the Motorola Building in the Los Alamos Research Park, Room 203 A/B. This is across the road from the main Laboratory Technical Area. The building has a nice coffee shop for lunches and coffee breaks, and it is adjacent to one of Los Alamos canyons with a network of hiking trails. It's less than 10 minutes ride from the Pajarito Ski Area, which offers its own network of adjacent hiking trails over the summer, and the drive to trailhead in the Santa Fe National Forest, Bandelier National Monument, and the Valles Caldera National Preserve is less than 30 minutes, allowing for nice afternoon hikes.

  • Map - the Research Park is at the top of the map, a bit to the left from the center.
  • Another map, the Research Park is the building with the bllue roof. Note that the Jemez/Diamond interchange is outdated on the map, and you should forward the directions below instead.
  • Directions from the School Hotel: from the Ashley Hotel take a left to Trinity Dr, follow to the intersection with Diamond Dr. (medical center is to your left), take left, pass the bridge, turn right at the first traffic light, pass the security check point (you must stop your car and wait to be waived in by a guard), and continue straight to West Jemez Road (NM 501). On West Jemez road turn right at the first traffic light to Casa Grande Street. The Motorola building is to your left. The Motorola building parking lot is a little bit further, along Casa Grande Street. The Motorola parking lot is the first lot on the right (behind the FireStation). You can also walk from the hotel to the Research park; it will take you about 25 minutes.
  • Parking permits will be provided in your registration packages.
  • Wireless and wired internet access will be available at the classroom. To connect to the wireless network, simply start up your browser and accept the terms and conditions.
