Word of introduction
CS2FE is back in Aussois!
We are very happy to host you in Aussois, a small village of the French Alps, at the CNRS resort.
The dates are June 9–14, 2024.
This year’s lecturers include: Prof. Bünzli, Dr. Bonnet, Prof. Cador, Prof. Giraud, Prof. Jaroschik, Dr. Le Guennic, Prof. Maron, Dr. Maury, Prof. Natrajan, Dr. Nocton, Prof. Norel, Prof. Sørensen, Dr. Riobé, and Dr. Sénèque.

Practical information
Plan your trip :
– A shuttle will depart from Chambery railway station at 4:30 pm on June 9. We will reach the resort at around 6:30 pm and enjoy our first dinner together after check-in.
– On June 14, the shuttle will reach Chambery at 2:30 pm.
