We are excited to announce the 2nd edition of the PLASMAScience Summer School, dedicated to low temperature plasmas.
It will be held on Porquerolles Island, France, from June 22 to 28, 2025. The Summer School is a one-week, free-of-charge training program for highly motivated PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, and early-career scientists interested in low-temperature plasmas and their societal applications. In particular, the Summer School aims to bridge fundamental concepts with innovative plasma-based solutions through lectures and hands-on, creative workshops.
The school will cover atmospheric-pressure plasmas, low-pressure plasmas, plasma propulsion (aerodynamic and space applications), medical plasmas, plasma applications in agriculture, plasmas for energy (solar energy, fusion, solar materials), plasmas for chemical conversion (e.g., CO₂), plasma nanotechnology, light sources, as well as plasma diagnostics and modeling.

Take Highway A50 (Marseille – Toulon) and A57 (Toulon – Nice), then follow the freeway junction to Hyères and continue toward Tour Fondue/Les Iles via D97. Parking is available near the pier, including one guarded lot. Cars are not allowed on Porquerolles Island, so you will need to leave your vehicle in Hyères at the small parking lot near La Tour Fondue or use the free parking near the harbour.
Take a train to Hyères or Toulon railway stations. From Toulon, you can connect to Hyères by regional trains (TER). From Hyères, take a taxi or bus N67 to Tour Fondue (schedule si coordinated with the ferry). Train tickets can be purchased at: sncf-connect.com.
The nearest airport to Porquerolles Island is Toulon-Hyères Airport (toulon-hyeres.aeroport.fr). From the airport, take a taxi or bus to Tour Fondue.
To reach Porquerolles Island, go to the Tour Fondue small harbor on the Giens Peninsula and take a ferry. The boat ride takes approximately 25 minutes.
For more information about shuttle boats between La Tour Fondue and Porquerolles Island, visit: www.tlv-tvm.com.
We organize a group transfer from Hyères train station and Porquerolles Island.
