Williams College in autumn.

Williams College sits in the village of Williamstown in the northwest corner of Massachusetts, framed by the Taconic and Green Mountains. Early October is one of the loveliest moments to visit: crisp mornings, warm afternoons, and the first turns of autumn color across the hills.

The conference will be hosted in the Science Center on the Williams campus. Sessions, posters, coffee breaks, and lunch will be held on-site so that attendees can move easily between presentations and informal discussion.

Meeting room / building

Registration and all talks will take place in Bronfman Auditorium, located in the Wachenheim building.

18 Hoxsey Street, Williamstown, MA

Local dining
