The Pyle Center
The Pyle Center is located on the UW-Madison campus on the shore of Lake Mendota within easy walking distance from the center of Madison. The Pyle Center features the Alumni Lounge conference room overlooking the water with a capacity of 280 people that is ideally suited for the single-session style of the meeting. Lunches and coffee breaks at the meeting center, an onsite banquet, and cocktail hour during poster session will offer a collegial and collaborative atmosphere throughout the meeting. Additionally, there are many nearby restaurants, cafes, and museums (including the UW’s Memorial Union Terrace pictured below) for the participants and guests of the Workshop to enjoy.
