key figures from 2021

Looking back at 2021

Faced with ongoing uncertainty from the rapidly evolving COVID pandemic, ESI chose to run its entire 2021 programme of schools in fully remote format. An already challenging situation, compounded by the tragic passing in January 2021 of Professor Philippe Sabatier, president of ESI and pioneer of the BioHeath Computing Schools which today bear his name. 

As school directors and faculty members rose to the task of adapting and redesigning curricula to a completely new format, the ESI team was busy identifying, testing and implementing various digital solutions to ensure an efficient back-office to support the smooth running of the schools. Thanks to these considerable efforts, matched by the enthusiastic collaboration of more than 240 on-line participants, ESI successfully implemented 9 schools & workshops totalling 140 days of on-line training. 

The entire ESI community – permanent staff, school directors, expert speakers and innovation coaches – is looking forward to the return to intensive face-to-face training in mid-2022!

Student testimonies

Saliou FALL
Master in the Characterization of Materials by Neutron Spectroscopy, Institute of Applied Nuclear Technology

Thank you to all the pedagogical team that allowed me to work with impending researchers, to have access to laboratories of the latest technologies and to have a huge experience. This course allowed me to put into practice concepts of which I knew only the theory. ESIPAP 2021

Grazia D’AGOSTINO
Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellow At IBA

The school allowed to me to deepen my knowledge in technologies and applications of particle accelerators, to acquire cutting-edge information from the lectures and seminars and to expand my working network. Considering the logistical difficulties, the organization of the school in the on-line format was excellent. JUAS 2021

Akomoneh RAYMOND
MSc Computational Science & Engineering, Universität Rostock

I cannot imagine the time it would have taken and the volumes of books and magazines I would have had to read to get this level of experience. The content of the lectures has been rich and, in some cases, challenging to understand. The fact that after just five weeks at JUAS I am already…

Watanyu FOOSANG
PhD Candidate, Université Paris-Saclay

By providing a comprehensive and coherent course programme, JUAS really fulfilled my expectation of building a strong foundation in the field. I have gained so much more understanding in accelerator physics. JUAS 2021

Robin MOLLE
Master in Nuclear and Energy Engineering, Grenoble INP – Phelma

It is one of the best parts of my training, even if it was remotely organized. I did not think I would have learnt so much in such a short time. To exchange with teachers and people from different nationalities is a huge strength. ESIPAP 2021

Leandro INTELISANO
PhD Candidate University Of Rome La Sapienza / CERN

Despite the limitations due to the pandemic, it was a fascinating journey into accelerator technologies and their applications guided by exceptional experts. JUAS 2021

Viveka GAUTAM
PhD in Particle Detectors, ATLAS Pixels Group – IFAE

I was searching for a training about electronics for detectors which could give me an overview of CERN. With ESIPAP I got everything in one place. I cannot find another course with this perfect combination. Given the circumstances this year (pandemic), ESIPAP was organised perfectly. ESIPAP 2021

Damien GILMANT
System Owner Rhodotron TT300HE, Ion Beam Applications - IBA

The lecturers are all experts passionate about sharing their knowledge. This is really the key asset of JUAS. JUAS 2021

Victor DU BUAT
MSc Nuclear Engineering, Grenoble INP-UGA

It was great to have the accelerator design course and workshop as it was an occasion to put all we saw together and to have an overview on what designing a particle accelerator may be. JUAS 2021

Malak AIT TAMLIHAT
PhD in High Energy Physics, Mohammed V University

I was very happy to have participated to this wonderful school. I am so appreciative of all you have done to help us acquire solid training in several areas of research and it was a pleasure to know all of you. Many Thanks !!! ESIPAP 2021
