Address of and how to reach Institut de Physique Nucléaire de Lyon located near Tramway T1 "Université Lyon I" stop. Google map of the area.  Final approach to IPNL (a 5 minute tour of some famous names in science) is as follows:
    Get off Tramway T1 at "Université Lyon I".
    Follow T1 line East until "Square Evariste Gallois" (an island of greenery).
    Just before the square, take the pedestrian way to the North; it eventually becomes "Rue Enrico Fermi".
    IPNL, located in building "Dirac", is last building West of the road.
