The EIROforum School of Instrumentation (ESI) is a biennial event, jointly organized by the Instrumentation Working Group of the EIROforum organizations.
The objective of ESI is to teach the basic principles of instrumentation to young researchers (PhD students, postdocs) and engineers, mainly from the EIRO organizations. A fraction of the places are reserved for particularly talented (PhD) students from outside the EIRO organizations who work on instrumentation topics.
The scientific programme of ESI addresses all aspects of instrumentation related to the missions of the EIROforum organizations.
Apart from the core programme, this ninth edition of the school will cover AI: its role in large-scale scientific research, as highlight topic and rapid prototyping during a project day.
The program is currently being developed in detail and should be available by the beginning of February.
