Who should attend?

This course is primarily designed for PhD students and Postdocs involved in the IP EUROTRANS, and accessible as well to those involved in the projects EUROPART and RED-IMPACT. The number of participants is limited to about 20 participants.

An active participation of the PhD students and Postdocs is required. Therefore, when applying, the participants should submit a short abstract (15 to 20 lines) of a presentation related to their work (at this stage: a progress report). A small grant, distributed by the organizer, will help the students whose presentation has been selected by the organizer, to finance their accommodation expenditures.
