Invited Speakers

The ESRF can provide accommodation arrangements for speakers in the ESRF Guesthouse on site (4 nights maximum - from Sunday 3rd March to Thursday 7th March 2024).

Concerned participants must request accommodation arrangements through the online registration form.

For security reasons, the ESRF Guesthouse is NOT available for accompanying persons and children under 16 are not permitted on site.

i Tram B links the ESRF (Tram B terminus Oxford) to downtown Grenoble in 15 mn, therefore public transportation between downtown hotels and the ESRF will be easy.
 

Regular participants and students
