Venue & accommodation
We are very excited and honored to be able to co-host this year’s annual Ion Channel Modulation Symposium (ICMS) Conference at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine at NYU Langone’s New Science Building and Schwartz Lecture Hall.
Venue:
The NYU Langone Science Building is a new facility encompassing more than 365,000 square feet and 10 floors of laboratory space dedicated to research, including wet laboratory space, core facilities, a new vivarium, conference spaces, and public amenities in an expansive, integrated environment.
Positioned at 30th Street and the FDR Service Road, just south of the Joan and Joel Smilow Research Center, the Science Building is the centerpiece of NYU Langone’s transformation at the southernmost end of the main campus and provides a prominent new gateway to research and education on campus.
The expansive new Science Building also enables NYU Grossman School of Medicine to accommodate new recruits and projected growth in funded research.
