Summer School
SCINT 2024
17th International Conference on Scintillating Materials and their Applications
July 6th and 7th, 2024
The Summer School has reached the maximum capacity. if you would like to attend the Summer School, please write an email to scint2024@promoest.com and you will be added to the waiting list.
The primary goal of this school is to provide PhD students and young researchers with an advanced understanding of the principles and applications of scintillators. The program covers fundamental scintillation as well as advanced concepts.
At the end of each day, social events will be organized to promote social interaction and the inclusion of young researchers in our scientific community.
The school will be held on Saturday and Sunday (two full days) just ahead of SCINT conference.
During the School, the participants will have the opportunity to present a poster and a short oral presentation of their research work.
The school is free of charge for all the participants. Moreover, for those registered at the SCINT 2024 conference, coffee-breaks, lunches, and social events are included.
Location: University of Milano - Bicocca, Building U6, Viale Piero e Alberto Pirelli 22, Milan
Graduation Room, 2nd Floor (Department of Law)
