Arriving to the conference

Paris Train Stations

Paris is easily accessible by train from many major cities across Europe. With several train stations, including Gare du Nord, Gare de Lyon, and Gare de l’Est,
you can conveniently arrive in the heart of the city from destinations such as London, Brussels, Amsterdam, and beyond.
Travelling by train is not only a comfortable and efficient option, but it is also an ecological choice, helping to reduce your carbon footprint.
We encourage you to consider this environmentally friendly mode of transportation for your journey to the conference.

Getting around Paris

Public transportation in Paris is relatively convenient.
You can find all the information you need regarding tickets on the official IDF mobilités website and RATP website.
Applications such as City Mapper and Google Maps operate quite effectively in Paris and will guide you to the Paris Brain Institute.

How to get to the ICM

There are two main entries to the Hospital (big pink zone with streets on it).
One is next to the metro 5 (orange line) stop Saint Marcel and the other is next to Chevaleret which is metro 6 (green line).
The easiest way is from Saint Marcel entry which is a straight line but Google Maps guides you inside the hospital so you should be okay.
