Description

That was FRANCI 2024

On the 23rd of July, ECAP welcomed colleagues from the Remeis Observatory in Bamberg and the University auf Würzburg for the annual FRANCI conference. A total of 90 attendees shared a day of scientific exchange, for the first time in the new ECAP building. Five members from each institute held presentations on their work, and many brought posters to show during the coffee break, during which the presentations were discussed.
The day was followed by an evening of games and further exchange over barbeque. We thank everyone who made this day special by attending or having a contribution, and we are looking forward to next years FRANCI meeting.
