This one week spring school will provide several three to four hour lectures by leading experts supplemented by a few shorter seminars. The year 2016 school will address Driven Quantum Nanosystems. The speakers will give graduate level presentations introducing to state-of-the-art methods and techniques featuring the key issues of the field of driven quantum nanosystems. While the school is primarily aimed at instructing PhD students and young postdoctoral researchers, more senior scientists who want to acquaint themselves with the subject of the school are also welcome.
Twelve fellowships for first and second year PhD students with a topic of their doctoral thesis closely related to the school focus will also be available. The fellowships cover half of the school registration fee for standard accommodation in a shared double room.
