Getting to Moscow from the airport: There are three international airports in Moscow: Sheremet'yevo, Domodedovo, and Vnukovo. All three are connected to Moscow through a high-speed railway, called Aeroexpress, with moderately priced tickets (320 rubles, approx. $11). It is possible to buy a round trip Aeroexpress ticket, which is a little bit cheaper (590 rubles for 2 trips). Taxi to Moscow would cost $100-$150, and during the day it can be very slow due to traffic jams.

The Aeroexpress timetables are available from their official site: [ Sheremetyevo | Domodedovo | Vnukovo ]. The point of arrival is a rail terminal, which is connected to a subway station: Byelorusskaya for Sheremet'yevo, Paveletskaya for Domodedovo, and Kievskaya for Vnukovo.

The map of Moscow Metro (subway) is found in Wikipedia.

Conference venue: All conference talks will take place at the Independent University of Moscow (MCCME), in the conference hall (4th floor). The IUM is situated in the historic center of Moscow.
The address is Bolshoy Vlasyevskiy per., 11.
The directions to the IUM from the subway stations Smolenskaya (Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya Line) or Kropotkinskaya can be found here. The walk from Smolenskaya is shorter (and goes through the famous Arbat street) while the walk from Kropotkinskaya is longer.
