Seventh Workshop on

Three-Dimensional Modelling of Seismic Waves Generation,

Propagation and their Inversion

25 October - 5 November 2004

Abdus Salam ICTP - Trieste

GUIDELINES FOR REQUESTING PARTICIPATION

GENERAL

Scientists and students from all countries which are members of the United Nations, UNESCO or IAEA may attend the activity.

Participants must have an adequate working knowledge of English.

Although the main purpose of the Centre is to help research workers from developing countries, a limited number of students and post-doctoral scientists from developed countries are also welcome to attend.

There is no registration fee to be paid.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT

May be requested only by candidates who are nationals of, and working in, a developing country, and who are not more than 45 years old.

Limited funds are available for a few participants, to be selected by the Organizers, and who accept to attend the entire activity.
