CLUES Workshop 2012 in Lyon

Our CLUES workshop took place at the Domaine Saint Joseph", close to Lyon, June 17 - 22, 2012.

Picture of the conference participants:

Keeping with the spirit of previous such meetings, the intention of this group meeting was to promote new collaborations among participants and to work on the existing ones. The meeting location is a quiet and secluded place nearby Lyon downtown. Built in 1928 by Lyon's Diocese, the Domaine Saint Joseph was a seminary used for training young priests. With its 5 ha and 8000 square meter and a beautiful view over the Mont du Lyonnais hills, it was the perfect place for philosophy and education, and will be a perfect place for astrophysical discussions. We have a seminar room all day, and a smaller meeting room every afternoon. There are plenty of other places to meet and discuss with wifi access, hopefully if the weather is nice also on the terrace in front of the park.
