Participation details

Selection Procedure

The number of participants is strictly limited to 30 students or post-docs. Participants will be primarily selected on the basis of their submitted application material, where motivation, recommendation and abstract all are important. A maximum of two students per research group or laboratory may be accepted. We strive for a 50/50 mix of participants with experimental and theoretical background.
It is expected that participants take part in all course activities. Registration for only parts of the course is not possible. The lecture and seminar programme of the course will be offered to students from Göteborg as a course within their post-graduate education.


Registration Fee

The registration fee is 16 000 SEK. The registration fee includes the course fee, accomodation in student hostels as well as all meals and social events. The registration fee excludes travelling.
