The location of the seminar will be on the campus of the University of California, Davis. Situated in a tranquil area in the California agricultural region known as the Sacramento Delta, and not far from the famous wine-growing region of Napa Valley, UC-Davis is a world-class university with an excellent library and other facilities that provide a comfortable setting for the seminar. Ranked as one of the best towns to live in in the nation, Davis is also considered the most bike-friendly city in the nation. On Saturday mornings and Wednesday afternoons, year-round, Davis hosts a farmer’s market as part of its commitment to sustainable living.

UC-Davis is located 15 miles west of the state’s capital, Sacramento, and 72 miles east of San Francisco, making trips to these cities, and the Bay Area of California in general, an entirely possible and exciting weekend adventure.
