QUANTUM CAVITIES WORKSHOP 2024

The 7th edition of the Quantum Cavities Workshop will take place from May 5th to May 8th in Jouvence, Québec, Canada.

Workshop schedule:

Poster session (Sponsored by Nord Quantique):
The poster session will be on the evening of the first full day of the workshop. Posters will be up for the duration of the workshop. The posters should be printed in a vertical rather than horizontal format.

Confirmed participants (Make sure you and your student, if applicable, are on this list.)

Travelling to the workshop:
The event will take place at the Jouvence resort, near Sherbrooke. The closest airport is the Montreal Pierre Eliot Trudeau airport (YUL). To travel from the airport to the resort, the best options are :

• Driving between YUL and Jouvence will take ~ 1h30, if there is no traffic (https://goo.gl/maps/266CpjkDS417dFB76). Renting a car is the simplest option.
• If you wish to offer/are looking for carpooling options use this link to a google spreadsheet. This is self organized.
• A shuttle service called Aeronavette ($152+tx/person, round trip) can take you from the airport to the a rest area (Magog, exit 115) located ~ 25 minutes away from Jouvence. You can use a cab to Jouvence from that point. As there are limited number of cabs in that area, if you plan to take this option, please notify the organizers two weeks in advance (quantum.cavities@usherbrooke.ca) so that the cab company can be informed of the potential number of customers at the end of the day on Sunday, May 5. Also note that aeronavette has to be booked in advance, they can be very slow to leave the airport and will want to pick you up very early from the rest area in Magog for your departure. The recommended option is to rent a car and offer carpooling.
• Limocar bus from downtown Montréal to a rest area (Magog, exit 115) located ~ 25 minutes away from Jouvence. As with the previous option, you can use a cab to Jouvence from that point. As there are limited number of cabs in that area, if you plan to take this option, please notify the organizers two weeks in advance (quantum.cavities@usherbrooke.ca) so that the cab company can be informed of the potential number of customers at the end of the day on Sunday, May 5.

Lodging and meals:
Thanks to the meeting sponsors, local costs (accommodations and meals) in Jouvence are covered. No need to book a room: if you are on the confirmed participant list, this will be taken care of for you. Please note that the accommodations are not traditional hotel rooms and have a more ‘rustic’ aspect that fits with the natural environment in Jouvence. Post-docs and trainees will share accommodations. Important note: Although local expenses will be covered by the workshop, Jouvence will require a credit card for incidental charges. Note that American Express is not accepted at Jouvence.

About Jouvence:
Jouvence is located in the Mont-Orford National Park with easy access to a lake and hiking trails. The schedule is organized such that there will be plenty of interaction time, with the opportunity to enjoy the park amenities (hiking, swimming, canoeing/kayaking, etc). Expect below freezing temperatures at night. We encourage participants to pack accordingly.
