Information to participants

 Who should attend IIS2023

Most attendees will be graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and early career faculty and research staff working in fields relevant to the ITER program. Although the agenda will focus on topics related to the impact of energetic particles on fusion plasmas, attendees are not required to be working in this field.

IIS2023 welcomes attendants from all nationalities, whether representing an ITER member or not. Attendees from countries outside of the Schengen Area are responsible for obtaining their own visa (an invitation letter is available to attendants upon request). Please be aware that obtaining a visa can be a time-consuming process and we urge you to start the process immediately. See the bottom of this page from more information.

Note that IIS2023 will be held exclusively in person. No remote participation will be allowed.
