Tribute to Cédric Garnier

As part of the "Mistral" workshop, a special session was devoted to our colleague, Cédric Garnier, who left us in May 2018. The exercise was not easy but Stéphane Mounier and Benjamin Oursel managed to evoke their colleague and friend, Cédric Garnier with a lot of emotion but also humour. They recalled the many actions, programmes and research projects in which Cédric was involved and underlined his scientific rigour, his work force, his taste for collective work, his passion for his profession as a teacher-researcher. Above all, they praised Cedric's human qualities, knowing how to combine the seriousness of his work with friendly conviviality over a beer or a good Listrac.

A "Cedric Garnier" prize will be created in 2019 to reward each year a Young Researcher from the MIO.
