Registration
.
.
.
.

To register, please send an email to ryzhik@stanford.edu. Please put "JBK registration email" in the subject line. There will be a charge for the workshop dinner, collected in some manner prior to dinner. Otherwise, registration is free but we do need a head count for dinner, so please do register. Please, also indicate in the email if you are interested in the hike on Sunday.

Transportation
.
.
.
.

Taxis from the San Francisco airport, unless booked in advance, charge the "double-the-meter rate". The only reasonably priced options are the ride-sharing services such as Uber or Lyft, or the Supershuttle. The San Jose airport is similar except taxis normally charge the regular rate from there to Palo Alto.

Hotels
.
.
.
.

The area around Stanford has many hotels, with a wide range of prices. However, many hotels book unreasonably far in advance, so early reservations are extremely strongly recommended.

For questions, send an email to ryzhik@stanford.edu
