Revision as of 17:07, 21 September 2019
Overview
The 2019 SAB meeting will be Friday, October 11, 2019, in 321 Stanley Hall on the UC Berkeley campus.
Agenda page coming soon, but we expect the meeting to begin at 9am and end no later than 4pm.
The SAB dinner will be Thursday, October 10 at 7:30pm at Corso, 1788 Shattuck Ave., Berkeley.
Meeting site
321 Stanley Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. It's about a 15-minute *uphill* walk from the downtown Berkeley BART station.
Travel and accommodations
Lourdes Montano <Lourdes.Montano@med.usc.edu> can help arrange your air travel and hotel in advance if you’d like, and we will reimburse local travel and meals. Or, you can arrange your own travel and/or hotel, which we can reimburse afterwards.
The closest airports are San Francisco (SFO) and Oakland (OAK). From either of those, you can take BART to Berkeley.
The SAB meeting will be at Stanley Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. It is about half a mile UPHILL from the downtown Berkeley BART and the Hotel Shattuck Plaza.
Recommended hotels in Downtown Berkeley
Hotel Shattuck Plaza
- Address: 2086 Allston Way, Berkeley
- Phone: 866-466-9199

- Description: No pool or fitness center. More distinctive than the similarly-priced Hotel Shattuck Plaza. A recent article about The Graduate noted, "Berkeley's quirky counterculture is represented by bong-shaped lamps in the guestrooms and a restroom urinal painted with the logo and colors of Stanford, Cal-Berkeley’s arch-rival." Known for having made a brief appearance in the movie of the same name.
