If you require a visa support letter to attend the symposium, please write to hosts from CSIR-IGIB at asm2026.igib@csir.res.in. We encourage international participants to apply for their visas well in advance.

Important Note: CSIR-IGIB operates from 2 campuses in Delhi. Please note that the symposium will take place at their Mathura Road campus.

Nearest Airport

The nearest airport to the CSIR-IGIB Mathura Road campus is the Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL), New Delhi’s primary international and domestic gateway. The airport is located approximately 20–25 km from the IGIB campus on Mathura Road and is well connected by road and metro. Travel time typically ranges from 25–60 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. 

While newer airports, such as Hindon Airport, exist within the NCR region, Indira Gandhi International Airport remains the recommended entry point, due to its extensive domestic and international connectivity.

Accommodation 

The symposium does not provide accommodation or travel support. Participants are responsible for arranging their own travel, meals and lodging. To assist with planning, we have compiled a list of nearby hotels. Please note that ASM or CSIR-IGIB have not arranged special rates or room blocks; attendees should contact hotels directly for availability and pricing. We recommend booking early, as hotels in Delhi are often in high demand.
