Swiss FameLab Masterclass

16 Apr 2016, 10:00 → 17 Apr 2016, 17:00 Europe/Zurich

61/1-009 - Room C (CERN)

Welcome to CERN to take part in the Swiss Famelab masterclass!
 

CERN's main site is in Switzerland, near the Meyrin village, in the outskirts of Geneva and a few meters from the French border. Please visit this page for directions. Tram 18 stops in front of the CERN Reception, close to the main gate (Entrance B) that you will have to use on Saturday. 

The CERN site is actually a large domain and, although it is indicated on the sign posting, it will not be obvious for you to find the Main Building. The app "MAP CERN" (freely available for iPhones and Androids) can be a valuable help. Alternatively, visit this site to find your way in or have a look at this simplified map.
