Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to organize a Thematic Summer School named Freezing & Interfaces which will take place in Cargèse, Corsica, on May 1-5, 2023.

The objective of this school is to present the fundamentals, the latest theoretical advances and experimental activities in the field of ice formation in capillary systems (drop, film, foam, porous media) and heterogeneous mixtures (solution, suspension, emulsion, granular).

The list of lectures and speakers is as follows:

– Freezing of solutions and formation of sea ice, with Grae Worster, DAMTP, Cambridge (4h)

– Freezing of suspensions and emulsions, with Sylvain Deville, Institut Lumière Matière, Lyon (4h)

– Freezing of soil and geomorphology, with Alan Rempel, University of Oregon (4h)

– Surface of ice and ice wetting, with Daniel Bonn, Institute of Physics, University of Amsterdam (4h)

– Formation of snow crystals, with Kenneth Libbrecht, Caltech (4h)

– Ice accretion in aeronautics, with Claire Laurent & Pierre Trontin, Onera, Toulouse (4h).

Participants will have the opportunity to present their work during two poster sessions.

More information can be found on the website of the conference: https://interfreeze.sciencesconf.org/.

Registration for the school is open and needs to be done on the dedicated webpage : https://interfreeze.sciencesconf.org/registration. 

Places will be limited to 80 participants. The registration deadline is March 10, 2023. 
We hope that many of you will be interested and we are looking forward to seeing you in May. 

Best regards,
