We are located in Suite A of this building, which is on the right hand side.

Please park in the front of the building.

What to bring

• Yourself
• A modern laptop (this will not be used for MinIon sequencing, but rather to connect to resources to analyze MinIon data). Just in case, please also bring an Ethernet cable and adaptor if required.
• Your favorite lab coat if you have one (we will be able to provide one if needed)
• Pens, markers and something suitable for use as a lab-book
