Gonda Conference Room Reservations

Welcome to the reservation page for the Gonda Center 1st floor conference room. Please complete the request for room reservation information below if you would like to schedule use of the conference room. Staff from the Gonda Center will respond to your request by e-mail within three business days. Please provide at least three days' notice for all requests. Please note that on very rare occasions, at the Director's or Chair's discretion, a reservation may be cancelled for a special event. Make sure to notify us if your plans change and you need to cancel a reservation! (Repeated no-shows may result in revoked reservation privileges.)

You may also cancel or reschedule a prior reservation.

Room layout options

The 1st floor conference room is normally set up with a 20-seat conference table and 28 chairs along the sides of the room, or in theatre-style with 63 chairs facing the podium and screen. It is also possible to remove all of the chairs for receptions accomodating approximately 80 persons.

Serving of food is permitted in the conference room. There is a 12' long counter that is used for placing food and drinks. If the conference table is used for displaying food, it must be appropriately protected from moisture or heat. Sponsoring departments may be charged for spills that require immediate carpet cleaning or other damage due to careless use or misuse of the room and equipment.

Room use policy

As part of the Gonda (Goldschmeid) Neuroscience and Genetics Research Center, the 1st floor conference room is intended to provide conference room and seminar space for the occupants of the Gonda Center who have priority in use of the conference room. Other departments and staff of David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and other campus departments may reserve the conference room within 30 days prior to their event.

Vendors providing goods and services to the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA may reserve the room for product displays open to the general campus population. There is a $250 fee for these marketing-oriented displays. Educational seminars demonstrating existing or new products directed towards specific staff can be sponsored by Gonda staff at no cost to the vendor.

Audio visual equipment

The 1st floor conference room has a built-in LCD projector that will project images from PowerPoint or other laptop based program, VCR tape, or DVD. A slide projector is also available. Laptops can be connected to the projector from the podium or from a wall port in the middle of the room (for conference table presentations).
