Accommodation and Shuttles
WARNING It has come to our attention that an undertaking trading as "Convention Hotel Services" (CHS), as well as "Exhibitors Housing Services" and “Exhibitors Housing Management” (EHM/EHS) has approached invited speakers for conferences taking place at the EMBL Advanced Training Centre. EHM/EHS, who have an address both in Germany and in the US, and CHS with an address in the US, contact speakers by email or telephone and create the impression to be the official housing partner of the conference in order to offer hotel reservation services. They are also asking for credit card details in order to book accommodation. EHM/EHS/CHS do NOT represent EMBL/EMBO, furthermore they are not authorised to use any contact data of our speakers. EMBL has taken legal steps to prevent EHM/EHS from contacting invited speakers. We would like to reassure you all that EMBL/EMBO do NOT and would NOT share the contact database with third parties. If you are contacted by such a company by phone or email alluding to EMBL/EMBO’s name and offering hotel reservation services, we urge you all to proceed with extreme caution. Ideally, simply ignore the interaction. We encourage invited speakers to book their travel themselves or use a service provider that they know and trust. EMBL/EMBO have made the necessary hotel arrangements for you and you will be notified accordingly. We encourage participants and exhibitors to book their travel themselves or use a service provider that they know and trust. EMBL/EMBO have blocked rooms in the hotels listed below, please contact the hotel with the conference code found on the conference website. |
