Venue
We are delighted to be returning to The Møller Institute again this year. The venue is approximately one mile from Junction 13 on the M11 motorway and a short taxi ride from Cambridge railway station with its frequent express services to Liverpool Street station and Stansted Airport. The meeting will be timed to allow most UK based people to travel to and from the symposium on the same day although accommodation is available at The Møller Centre for those travelling from afar.
Registration
Registration will open in early May and the closing date for registration is Friday, 6th November 2026.
We hope you will be able to attend and help make this meeting of the IIS UK Group as successful as in previous years.
A buffet lunch will be provided for all delegates.
