<br>
Dear Collaborators,<br>
as announced during the last two CLAS Collaboration Meetings, the spring meeting will be held in Paris (France), from March 21st to March 24th. It will have the format of a workshop, including also some non-CLAS speakers. The workshop title will be "<span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"></span>International workshop on CLAS12 physics and future perspectives at JLab". <br>
<br>
The timetable will follow the scheme of the last CLAS meeting (Tue-Thu morning and evening sessions, Fri only morning session). Attendance in person is strongly encouraged. Given the time difference, remote attendance will not be easy, especially, for the morning session - but we will provide zoom connection nonetheless. <br>
<br>
The workshop will take place in the auditorium of the CNRS headquarters, 3 Rue Michel Ange, Paris 16th arrondissement. The registration fee (which we are working on determining in these days), should be roughly between 100 and 150 euros, and will include two coffee breaks per day, the lunches in the CNRS cafeteria, plus the excursion and conference dinner. The excursion will be a visit of the Musée d'Orsay (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.musee-2Dorsay.fr_fr&d=DwMFaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=oFpNaB86z9R0_Cm6JnqHF7R2h2vWMtKYuwr2PTSEYoE&m=l-L5QqM8Eg0HHH0OT6-RV5ZHp-brkcMA4aExpkxXGd7g_ZSHamxlCBVIJGA7X-5w&s=yizBH3n-lZFB4kTF27TmdCrQfYlC3IaBUzu_mAHLF1E&e=" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.musee-orsay.fr/fr</a>) and the dinner will also be in the museum's restaurant. <br>
<br>
The indico page and program are under construction. If possible, it would be very helpful for our organization if people who are planning to attend can contact me (<a href="mailto:silvia@jlab.org" target="_blank">silvia@jlab.org</a>) to let me know, so that we can have a rough idea of how many participants we will have. <br>
<br>
Students who want to attend the workshop can apply for travel support at JSA. <br>
<br>
Whoever needs an invitation letter for visa purposes, please get in touch with me. <br>
<br>
I strongly suggest whoever plans to come to start looking for an accommodation, as Paris has a lot of tourists all year long and finding hotels may not be straightforward. The workshop venue is in central Paris, and well served by public transportation (metro lines 9 and 10 and several buses), so you don't necessarily have to get a hotel nearby. Please contact me if you have any question. <br>
<br>
Looking forward to see you all in Paris in the spring!<br>
Best regards,<br>
Silvia<br>
