Local Transportation:

The Emory Conference Center Hotel offers a free shuttle service to/from the hotel within a 1-mile radius of the conference center that can be used by all MoLA attendees, regardless of whether they are staying at the hotel.

Directions to the conference center can be found on the Emory Conference Center web site. Public transportation is unreliable in Atlanta, but Uber/Lyft/Waymo are available everywhere. Walking is easy and safe around the Emory campus area and Downtown/Midtown, but is not recommended elsewhere due to the lack of sidewalks and erratic local driving habits.
