SFB Block Meeting

23 Feb 2012, 09:00 → 24 Feb 2012, 18:00 Europe/Berlin

H2 (Geomatikum)

The SFB Block Meeting presents the various research directions of the SFB 676 in a two-day event. There will be plenary talks as well as parallel sessions, focusing on the interfaces between the research sectors A, B and C. On Friday afternoon new funding suggestions within the SFB and LEXI will be presented.
