1st HGSFP Summerschool 2023
Molveno, Italy, 11.06. - 17.06.2023
The HGSFP Summerschool 2023 will be a student-organized five-day summerschool that brings together students from all branches of the Heidelberg Graduate School for Physics to facilitate scientific and social exchange among its members. The school takes place in Molveno, Italy. The participants will attend a lecture program covering most branches of the HGSFP and present their own research to their fellow students during a poster session. In addition, the timetable of the school gives the opportunity to connect with the lecturers and the other students during both social and sportive activities.
The HGSFP covers the accommodation in shared rooms, full board, the bus transfer from Heidelberg to Molveno and back as well as the social program for all participants.
Online registration is closed.
