The ALERT Poster session will be held on Monday September 29th during the ALERT Workshop.

To participate to the poster session, please submit your abstracts (both word/openoffice and pdf files are required) by email to the coordinators Nadia Benahmed (nadia.benahmed@inrae.fr) and Antoine Wautier (antoine.wautier@inrae.fr) using the attached abstract form (Template).

This year we are innovating by adding some poster lightning sessions in the course of the three days of the workshop. All posters will be given a 1min (mandatory) slot before the coffee breaks to advertise for their poster.

As last years, PhD candidates that have not yet defended their PhD at the time of the poster session can participate to the poster prize competition (€500) (all rules here). For those wishing to participate to the poster prize competition, please send your poster (in pdf format) at the same time as your abstract. For further details regarding poster prize rules please refere to: https://alertgeomaterials.eu/data/poster_prize/poster%20prize%20rules.pdf

The deadline for the submission of the abstract is the September 1st, 2025. The slots for the lightning session will be attributed on a “first submitted first served” principle, so don’t wait for the last minute to submit your abstract.

For the lightning sessions, you can send a single slide to support your speech. Creativity is welcome, and overcrowded slides should be avoided !

Dear colleagues,

We are getting close to the start of the ALERT Workshop. A few details about your journey to Aussois:

As last year, the railroad line between Saint Jean de Maurienne and Modane is closed due to a rock slope instabillity. This is why there is no TGV between Paris and Modane.

You can get to Modane by taking a train between Chambéry and Saint Jean de Maurienne and then a bus to Modane. 

When you arrive in Modane by bus, there are cabs to call:
– Taxi Haute Maurienne: +33 4.79.20.51.57 
– Lionnel transport: +33 6.09.68.39.91 
– Gros : +33 6.60.38.01.23 
– Mont Taxi: +33 6.60.47.03.06 
– Alpes Taxi: +33 6.31.55.82.71

As in previous years, we have organized a direct bus service between Saint Jean de Maurienne (at the bus station) and Aussois on Sunday September 29. It will leave Saint Jean at 16h. Another bus is planned at 19h40.

See you soon in Aussois,
Frédéric COLLIN.

Dear ALERT community,

This is the last reminder that the registration for the ALERT Geomaterials Workshop and School 2024 is open! The preliminary programme of the Doctoral School and Workshop is available here.

Please note that the deadline for registration is SEPTEMBER 1st! It won’t be extended so make sure to register!

In the continuity of last year edition, a remote access to the doctoral school is proposed at the same price as the on-site option. However, this remote option only gives access to the passive attending of the presentations, and no questions could be asked.

This year, the ALERT Bureau has once again decided to offer one day of accomodation to:

  • all PhD students attending the doctoral school and belonging to an ALERT member institution (in a double room only);
  • all retired researchers attending the workshop.

Please read the hints in the registration form! After filling the form and pressing the button “Register”, a window will open to prompt you to save the invoice as a .pdf file. Please save it for your records! You will also get an email with the registration data afterwards. If you are an ALERT member, the corresponding representative of your ALERT institution will receive the registration data too.

Click here to register for the ALERT Workshop and School 2024.

The accommodation in Aussois will be processed in the order of the registrations (see the hints in the registration form). Please note that the number of rooms in the CNRS “Centre Paul Langevin” is limited.
See also hints on how to get to Aussois.

If you need to modify or cancel your registration, please send an email to director@alertgeomaterials.eu, mentioning your invoice number, at least one week before the meeting. Individuals who fail to honor their registration will be required to pay a fee to the hotel covering the cost of both the room reservation and the food services.

Looking forward to meeting you in Aussois!
