IBA•PIXE 2025 Venue

Conference location: Campus MIL of U. Montréal

The IBA•PIXE 2025 conference will be held in the brand new Complexe des Sciences of Université de Montréal. Note that this complex is not on the main campus of Université de Montréal, but on Campus MIL, 2-3 subway stations away. Yet it is well linked to public transportation, at walking distance (5 min.) from to 2 subway stations (Outremont or Acadie) of the Blue line.

Street address: 1375 Ave. Thérèse-Lavoie-Roux, Montréal. (Note that this is not the mailing address.)

From the airport to Downtown and Université de Montréal

Bus: The Montréal Airport (YUL) is connected to downtown via city Bus 747. Please note that to board this special bus, one needs a 24h pass or 3-day pass; single-passage tickets won't work. Weekly pass would also work but become valid only from the next Monday, so the other two passes are better options if arriving during the weekend. Also, the A-zone passes only cover the Montréal Island.

Taxi: There is a flat rate from the airport to downtown, but Université de Montréal is outside that zone so the price will depend on where one goes exactly and how long it takes. It is customary to give a 15% tip to the driver if you are satisfied.

Car: Driving in Montréal is like driving in New York or Chicago. (Right turn on red light is forbidden everywhere on the Montréal island.) Street parking in the immediate surrounding of the conference venue is forbidden, and restricted to 2h max in the neighbourhood (except for residents with a windshield sticker). There is a parking under the Complexe des Science for 20$/day (as of Nov. 2024, subject to changes) but with limited number of spaces.

Hotels and University Residences

Special rates have been negotiated with a downtown hotel and the residences. Prices below are for one (1) night, in Canadian dollars (CAD) and exclude taxes. Reservation code required to benefit from these rates will be communicated through the mailing list.

Social program

Different conference outing options are offered. Stay tuned. The conference banquet/networking event is scheduled to take place on the main campus of the Université de Montréal; tours of the ion beam lab, where ERD was invented, are planned on this occasion.
