Program

The workshop will take place on the 27th and 28th of September. A detailed program will be given closer to the date but the structure will be as follows. The first day will consist of technical talks before and after lunch and there will be a social event and a workshop dinner that evening. The second day will consist of technical talks until lunch. After lunch there will be tours of labs in Tyndall National Institute for interested participants.
