Extended deadline : registration opened until April7th 2023.
The Interfreeze School will take place in Cargèse (Corsica) from 1st to 5th of May 2023. Participants are expected to arrive on April 30 during the day and depart on May 6 in the morning.
The objective of this school is to present the fundamentals and the latest theoretical advances and experimental activities in the field of solidification of capillary flows, porous media and heterogeneous mixtures, with a particular focus on the case of ice formation. This is an emerging subject in the macroscopic physics community, older in others (metallurgy for example), and crucial in a wide range of applications from aeronautics to environmental issues. The aim of this school is therefore to train these different communities together, but also to structure them and generate synergy between the main national and international players in these fields.
Registration is open until April 7th 2023.

Conference fees
The registration fee for the School is :
418€ for PhD students and postdocs,
620€ for permanent researchers,
1300€ for industrial partners.
As the School has the CNRS 'Thematic School' label, the registration fee for CNRS staff is 0€.
A reduced rate (-60€) applies for participants who prefer a low-carbon itinerary (train-boat).
The price includes accommodation, breakfast, lunch and coffee breaks. Dinners are at the expense of the participants in the restaurants of the village.
Poster Session
Two poster sessions will be organized on Monday and Wednesday in the late afternoon. We encourage all participants who wish to do so to come and present their work.
