Dress code Academy eventEdit
The dress code for the Academy event is a mix between "business casual" and "informal attire" (please wear with whatever you feel comfortable, I wouldn't recommend jeans and a polo shirt, though)
- Men: dark trousers, (optional matching jacket), shirt, (optional tie),
black shoes
- Women: (optional suit) or skirt or trousers, blouse, (optional
matching jacket), closed toe shoes
Getting to the NIH headquarters on Thursday morningEdit
The NIH will organize a van for us all. We'll leave our hotel at 7:50 am (meeting in the lobby at 7:40 am)
Flights homeEdit
Please check your flight plans and make sure you'll leave the hotel early enough. We'll reimburse you for the cab/public transportation.

Open questionsEdit
- People will need to check out of the hotel in the morning. The hotel will store people's luggage?
- The NIH will arrange for transportation back to the hotel at which time?
