We can't beleive it!

More than 400 attendees have now registered, it's amazing.

Thank you for your confidence!

************************

This success makes our task quite difficult as we've been quite betrayed by our registration system. Some of you indeed still encounter problem to pay their registration fee or book the gala dinner. Well, well, sorry guys, but we do our best and are mud lovers, like you, not geeks, so please be indulgent and don't panic.

We are indeed working hard to propose everyone a solution to solve those issues. Till then please note :

- your registration will remain effective at least until end of September, even if the payment process was not completed

- in worst cases, we'll manage to propose you a payment option by CB on-site (not to be privileged, but if you want to queue all morning long...)

- we will propose a late-registration option for the gala dinner in September.

Right now, our admin angels (Cindy and Christine: eternal thanks to them!) are close to take deserved vacations, so don't be surprised if you get no answer from them. Please be patient, enjoy the summer on the field or on vacation (or neither of them if your are from the southern hemisphere, sorry...) and check your e-mails, our website and social media, end of August.

In case of emergency there'll still be someone to answer @: ialipa-2025@sciencesconf.org

In the meantime, Charline (thanks to her!) and the scientific committee worked hard to build up the scientific program which should be out soon. This will permitt you checking when your favorite sessions will he held. Sessions' convenors have received their allocated numbers of talk slots, so you should also know soon whether you'll have to prepare a talk of poster.

There will be 4 parallel rooms + plenary events, all in the same buiding, which should be very cool.

Finally, thanks to a gang of youngsters, the festive and convivial part of the congress is also taking form. Can't tell you everything, but something that's sure is that you shouldn't be starving or running out of coffee and b***.

A special thank to Julia, Andrea and Chrisitne who prepared your local welcoming gifts and crowfunding counterparts ; William and Emeline who worked on the gala dinner and breaks ; Theo who proposed and organised the gala animation ; Olivia and François who booked the foodtrucks for lunches ; Charline (one more time) who took in charge the babysitting facility ; as well as Renaldo and Marie. Sure you'll have plenty of occasions to cheer and offer them a b*** on-site!

======================================

Preliminary schedule is now online!

Check it here

Be careful, given the success of the 2nd call for abstracts, we had to add a session block: the end of the symposium is now scheduled on Friday 10th @ 6 PM

- SC1 (geochronology) SC3 (inorganic geochemistry) and SC4 (sediment DNA) are full

- SC2 (data stewardship) has somes places remaining

This new activity appears to be a success, we hope it will be continued for the upcoming meeting.

A big thank to Pierre who's taking care of it!
