During the week, there will be project sessions related to the topic of the week. On Thursday, the participants will present the results of their project assignments.
Students' presentations
Participants are invited to present their work in oral presentations of 15 minutes each. The goal of these presentations is to give students the possibility to present their work to an audience of their peers. This will provide an important opportunity to get useful feedback on both the contents of the talk and the way the talk is presented, which will help to improve the quality of future presentations. Participants are therefore strongly advised to make use of this opportunity. If you wish to give an oral presentation, please inform the FANTOM secretary Amarins Petitiaux (address see below) before 1 October, and send her the title and an abstract of your presentation before 15 October 2012.
Programme
The lectures will start Monday morning 5 November and will end Thursday afternoon 8 November.
Accommodation
The study week will be held in NH Hotel Groningen, which is near the Groningen city centre and next to the University Medical Centre Groningen.
