Finding accommodation and finding your way around Edinburgh: If you want to live close to the campus it is worth knowing that Biological Sciences is mainly based at King’s Buildings, with the Institute for Stem Cell Research based in the Centre for Regenerative Medicine. Edinburgh is an easy city to get around though if you are living further away from campus. If you would prefer to flat-share with someone from the department, you can ask your PI to send out an email asking for a room.
