Description

The Fourth Annual ARDENT Workshop will take place at the Masarykova Kolej venue, on the main grounds of Czech Technical University in Prague. The Workshop gathers together all fifteen ESRs, their supervisors and representatives of the Associate Partners to update on the progress made at each institution and exchange information. A training course is part of the workshop. Meetings of the five ARDENT Boards will also take place. One day is entirely dedicated to outreach.
