Venue

The newly-built Institut de mathématique d'Orsay (how to get there?)

Note: This is the new location of the maths department in Orsay, since January 2018, with building number 307 on the campus map. (Some participants may have known the old maths building numbered 425.) Elisabeth was a key actor in the construction of these new headquarters for mathematics in Orsay.   

 

Registration 

Public registration is now closed, as we reached full capacity of the amphitheatre and had to order catering. Members of Elisabeth's guest list who have not registered yet may still reach out to the organizers.
