The school will start with on September 28th at 19h and end on October 3rd at 14h after lunch.
Sunday September 28th
19h30 Welcome party and dinner
The program will consist of lectures given by invited speakers, poster presentations of the participants, a panel discussion as well as open discussions. The time-table will be published soon.
LECTURES:
The school will be organized with 16 lectures that will be followed by discussion. There will be 7 overview lectures of 1 h 45 (lecture plus discussion) and 9 lectures of 1 h 15 (lecture plus discussion) on more specialized topics.
POSTERS (oral and sessions):
We expect up to 50 PhD students/postdocs. Each one of them will:
- Present one poster (during the 2 poster sessions)
- Advertise his/her poster with a short oral presentation using 1-2 slide (3 minutes per person)
PANEL DISCUSSION:
5 selected lecturers will lead an open question and answer session on a particular topic, or to provide a link between the different courses. They will also animate a debate on the future perspectives of the field
OPEN DISCUSSION:
will take place on an informal basis each day after lunch break
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES:
In addition to the scientific program, we also plan social activities like a hiking excursion on Wednesday afternoon and a special dinner on Thursday evening.
