Statistical Bioinformatics and Stochastic Systems Biology Workshop

Monday 13th and Tuesday 14th June 2011

Venue and Travel


The meeting will be held in Room 2.21 of the Research Beehive in the Old Library Building at Newcastle University. Maps are available.


Rail: Direct train services from many parts of the UK arrive at Newcastle Central Station.
Train times may be obtained from National Rail Enquiries.
The University is about 20 minutes walk or a short Metro or taxi ride from the station.

Metro: Newcastle has a Metro system. The nearest Metro station to the University is Haymarket. Jesmond Metro Station is only slightly further away. Both can be seen on the "City Centre Map" on the Maps Page. Each Metro Station location is marked with a "M".

Jesmond station is, in fact, not much further from the venue than Haymarket but, whereas Haymarket is right across the street from the University, you can not see the University from Jesmond Station so the route is not so obvious. Go West along Jesmond Road until you cross the A167(M) Central Motorway by an underpass and then cross the Great North Road by the footbridge in front of the Robinson Library. Monument Metro station is also not far away. From there, follow Northumberland Street to the Haymarket.

Air: Metro trains from Newcastle Airport call at Jesmond and Monument stations.

Ferry: There is also ferry from the Netherlands.
