Short Courses in conjunction with
DTE 2027
Preamble
IACM values the opportunity, especially for young researchers, of providing courses and workshops in conjunction with the large IACM events.
Common to the instructions of IACM is the core conviction that these courses should be provided on a non-profit, benevolent basis.
