We’re happy to announce the first (of hopefully many) European Summer School on Physical Acoustics will take place in Cargèse (Corsica, France) from September 16th-20th 2024. Participants are expected to arrive on September 15th and depart on September 21th in the morning.

Training event description
The summer school contains a rich technical program starting from the basics of ultrasound through different specialty fields including radiation forces, streaming, holograms, and bubble dynamics. Alongside courses on these fundamentals, we will offer daily “Hot Topic” seminars that will cover current cutting-edge research topics in physical acoustics. Unique to our summer school is the inclusion of experimental demos and numerical tutorial sessions, which are geared towards giving participants hands-on skills that they can then bring back and use in their own research. Additionally, we have incorporated time for early-career attendees to present their work in short presentations and an evening ‘pint of science’ poster session.
Topics
The summer school will cover topics including:
- Fundamentals of linear acoustics
- Nonlinear acoustic effects: radiation forces & streaming
- Field synthesis & acoustic holograms
- Bubble dynamics & cavitation
- Emerging areas in physical acoustics
Important dates
Early-bird registration from March 11 to April 30. Note, the summer school can accommodate up to 50 participants.
