This is targeted at young scientists and provides opportunities to have enthusiastic discussions of their research projects with active research leaders at the forefront of this field. The presenters can spend more time on their presentations and discussions in the same time slot as other oral presentations, and get profound and sharp advice and feedback. If that excites you, apply for Training School for Next Generation Scientists!
