CONFERENCE VENUE

The event will take place at the Institut d'Études Scientifiques - IESC at Cargèse.

IESC

Cargèse is located on the West coast of Corsica. The closest airport and harbor are located in the city of Ajaccio. Other itineraries are possible but please be aware of the scarceness of public transportation in Corsica. Driving through Corsica is scenic but can take a long time.

Transfers from and to the airport at Ajaccio will be provided via shuttle buses only on the first and last days of the meeting. As you are expected to stay the full duration of the meeting, no organized transfer will be proposed on other days.

The event will start on Monday, April 1st, 2024 which is Easter Monday. As a consequence, it will be a period of intense travelling to and from Corsica. Accepted attendees or guest speakers are invited to organize their venue as soon as possible.
