What is the address of the Hynes Convention Center?
The Hynes is located at 900 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02115.

 

Why doesn’t the shuttle bus run all day?
The Retreat is a chance to celebrate the remarkable work underway at the Broad, connect with Broad colleagues, and learn about the scientific discoveries and advances being made throughout our community off-site. There are plenty of other ways to return to the Broad (via public transit, directions are in the program booklet) should you need to.

 

Is parking provided at the retreat? 
No. However, there are a number of public garages in the area.

 

I have a new hire that would like to attend the retreat. Can they register if they have yet to set up an email account?
New hires who do not yet have an email address, or those who start after registration invitations have been sent, may register by emailing retreat@broadinstitute.org with their first and last name.

 

I’m a member of an Associate Member’s lab, can I attend the retreat? 
Yes, associate members, members of their labs, and all employees/students of Broad participating institutions are encouraged to attend!

 

Is there a Mother’s Room on site? 
Yes. The Mother’s Room is located in Room 307 on the third floor of the Hynes.  The room -- which has a refrigerator -- is available by appointment only. Please contact retreat@broadinstitute.org with questions or concerns.

 

Will there be accommodations for food allergies/special requests? 
Meals at the retreat will accommodate vegetarian/vegan preferences and take into account common food allergies. Kosher meals are available on request through the registration site.

 

Will the talks be recorded?
No, given that research discussed is unpublished. The talks will not be streamed elsewhere in the building or at Broad.

 

I’m a poster presenter, where and when do I present my poster?
Posters are all in Room 302|304|306 this year. More information will be sent directly to you closer to the retreat.

 

 

Posters can remain up until EOD Tuesday, December 18.
