SECOND WEEK

Daily schedule for second week:

GENERAL INFO:
Each day will start with summaries of the previous days lectures prepared by groups of students. This ensures that the main topics are understood and give the opportunity to pick up on any unanswered questions/topics.

In the first week we will also have time slots for short presentations by each student, where you can show a few slides describing your PhD work or current research topic.

Part of the time during the last two days of the summer school will be used to prepare a written summary/discussion of the main findings/conclusions of the summer school. This will later be submitted to an appropriate journal.

You can find all the daily summaries and the final submitted paper from previous summer schools on this www site.

DEPARTURE

The summer school program will end in the afternoon on Friday the 19^th of September. All students have to vacate the Marine Station by 13:00 at Saturday August 20^th. We will arrange transport to Deer lake airport Saturday morning.
