Best wishes for 2022

Dear ALERT community,

The ALERT Bureau and the Board of directors would like to wish you a happy new year 2022.

The year 2021, although far better than 2020, was still under the influence of the Covid-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, we had the chance to meet in person in Aussois. This year’s edition was organized in a hybrid mode, with presenters and participants being able to access the workshop and doctoral school remotely. It allowed a greater number of participants, which is great! 

We hope that 2022 will allow us to further develop and strengthen the ALERT community, whatever the restrictions associated to Covid-19.

We wish you all the best for 2022,

See you all in Aussois.
