All students (Bachelor, Master, PhD), postdocs and early career researchers who are interested to learn about and explore hot topics in theoretical and observational astrophysics are invited to participate in the EXPLORE summer school! 
Priority will be given to participants in the EXPLORE IVth edition, then to particpants of previous editions of EXPLORE, other members of Goethe University, York University, University of Alberta and MIT, as well as other members of ELEMENTS and of the CRC-TR 211, and finally to external people.

We sadly cannot give any financial support to external applicants.
