Intimate Locations
Fairmont Banff Springs                  

Located in the heart of Banff National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the world-famous Fairmont Banff Springs is a landmark in the picturesque alpine town of Banff, Alberta. Canada's "Castle in the Rockies" has been providing legendary hospitality to guests since 1888. Unrivaled among Banff luxury hotels, our year-round mountain resort offers a 27-hole championship golf course during the summer, exceptional skiing in the winter, an award-winning spa, and several distinctive dining experiences.

Discover the majestic natural setting while ensconced in luxury at Fairmont Banff Springs. Our rooms and suites surround you with modern comforts while evoking the elegance of an earlier age. Reserve the private 360° Dome for an unforgettable meal with panoramic Rocky Mountain views, or join us on a guided hike or snowshoeing excursion to discover secluded vantage points. Chateau Mountain Sports, one of the carefully selected on-site shops and galleries, provides bike and winter-gear rentals for seamless adventures.

Networking & Career Development Opportunities

Career Roundtables

As part of our commitment to support and train the next generation of scientific leaders from all backgrounds, Keystone Symposia hosts Career Roundtables at our conferences. These workshops create a forum for field leaders to provide their unique perspectives on career development, professional pitfalls, and the breadth of scientific opportunities available to support trainee scientists. Established researchers are chosen from a broad range of backgrounds (i.e., diverse demographics, career stages, and career paths) to reflect a myriad of career-paths and experiences. Trainees and early-career investigators will have the opportunity to interact with field leaders for essential career development advice and networking opportunities.

“The most important message is that we all walk nonlinear paths and it is so easy to forget when we experience struggle or we look up at people in power position: it always looks so simpler on the other side…Thanks again for your investment on the trainees. Priceless investment on the present and future of science.”

–Valentina Greco, PhD, Carolyn Slayman Professor of Genetics, Yale School of Medicine

Meet-the-Editor Roundtables

Meet-the-Editor workshops are designed to foster connections between editors and scientists of all career stages. These mutually beneficial relationships help to facilitate the publication process for researchers, while providing editors insight into exciting new discoveries and research directions to showcase in upcoming journal issues. We encourage you to take advantage of this special session, to reach out to these editors during the meeting, and to get the inside scoop on fast-tracking your work for publication. Meet-the-Editors workshops are at select meetings. Please check the full program for meeting offerings.

Health Equity Forums

Health Equity Forums engage diverse voices from around the world in conversations that raise awareness for health disparities in various disease states and initiate discussions on how to rectify health inequities through scientific research and discovery. Forums feature short talks or panel discussions that address health equity challenges, research goals and strategies, and showcase how scientists are bringing molecular, cellular, and genetic approaches to drive clinical advances for diverse populations in need. Health Equity Forums are at select meetings. Please check the full program for meeting offerings.
