BAPG at Stanford Nov. 4

[Dmitri Petrov]

Dear All--

We are very excited to host the BAPG at Stanford on Nov 4. We have 135 registered participants from across the Bay Area and a number of very exciting talks. Can't wait to see you all!

We have the maximum capacity of 150 but do let others know if they want to come. We have just a few spots left. As always registration is free but required: https://goo.gl/forms/2jWjONK6nE2JG78T2

Location: Clark Auditorium at The Clark Center. https://biox.stanford.edu/about/clark-center/map-directions

Parking: It is free in any A and C spots across campus on the weekends. Parking along the Roth Way between the Campus Drive and the Palm Drive is probably the easiest. Or in the Roth Garage. https://www.parkme.com/lot/97428/roth-way-garage-stanford-ca
