    Hi everyone,

     

    Please see the below call for papers – of interest to PhD students and post-docs.  Pass it on to anyone to whom you think it might be relevant. It's a short deadline (30 April), but the submission is only 2-3 pages.  If you have any questions please email Jost Hamschmidt (jost.hamschmidt@unisg.ch) whose email address is not working very well with the listserv at the moment.

     

    In my experience these academies are fantastic – if you've been thinking about submitting but haven't done it yet I would strongly encourage you to do it.

     

    Regards,

    Nardia
