The School provides early stage researchers with interactive experiences of hands-on research involving table-top experiments with computer data acquisition and modeling. Participants will also take part in professional development of improved scientific communication in English.
An intensive programme of laboratory experiments, mathematical modeling, and lectures gives participants immersive experiences with complex systems in the physical and life sciences. Additionally, participants will present their own research in talks and posters with extensive faculty feedback to enhance the presentation quality. The faculty are eminent scientists who have conducted frontier table-top research published in leading international scientific journals.
Topics:
Speakers will include:
A. BROWN, University of Edinburgh, UK
L. CRISTOFOLINI, University of Parma, ITALY
F. FENTON, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA
B. HUNT, University of Maryland, College Park, USA
M. POLIN, University of Warwick, UK
A-S. SMITH, FAU Erlangen-Nurnberg, GERMANY
T. SOLOMON, Bucknell University, USA
Grants:
A limited number of grants are available to support the attendance of selected participants, with priority given to participants from developing countries. There is no registration fee.
