General Information:
All the participants will stay at the Centre Paul Langevin in Aussois, where the scientific sessions will take place.
We expect all the participants to stay for the entire duration of the workshop (Sunday 8:30am - Wednesday noon), in particular not to arrive on Sunday morning (which means missing essentially all the talks of the day) and not to leave on Tuesday afternoon (which means missing the Wednesday session and all the round tables on Tuesday).
Priority will in any case be given to participants attending all the sessions given the restricted number of rooms we have this year. [It might be possible to stay somewhere else but it is not very convenient and we will not be able to provide any help to search]
Cost:
The cost for the conference attendance with full board accommodation for 4 nights and the conference fee is 550€ (single occupancy) and 500€ (double shared) (incl. all the meals, the coffee breaks, the rental of the conference room, etc.) . If you stay one night more, add about 110€ (The centre will take care for this). The default way is to directly pay at the centre (cash or card). Other options should be analysed case by case (and you should inform us as early as possible).
Note the price for accompanying persons is also 110€ per day as full board accommodation is mandatory.
Travel information and tips:
The center is 9km away from the Modane train station.
We advise you to take a train to Modane station. There are 1 or 2 bus per day to Aussois. Usually we also arrange shared taxis (paid by the participants) at the arrival of some trains. We will post the information shortly.
| Aussois is a ski resort and the workshop takes place in winter. You should then expect winter conditions and the corresponding traffic issues. It therefore makes sense to try to avoid the late trains and to consider arriving in the late morning or early afternoon, to arrive with daylight. The sunset is at 5pm! |
If you are leaving from Paris (note that luggage delivery can take some time at both Paris airports, and anticipate to take three hours from flight arrival to train, even though on paper the trip from CDG from Gare to Lyon says ~45 mins, it typically takes 1hr30):
From Italy:
From Monday to Saturday, there a bus from Bardonecchia to Modane (line 902, travelling monday to saturday, 7 trips per day, 3.60€ - ticket to be purchased on the bus. Here is the timetable: https://www.bardonecchia.it/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Orari-linea-902-valido-dal-20.11.2023.pdf).
