Program

Our workshop in Heidelberg was from Monday morning the 24-th of September 2018 to Friday the 28-th at lunch time. The program includes alternating theory sessions with lectures and hands-on tutorials. On request of many we keep the program, including the slides of the lectures and tutorials online.
