Back from the summer vacation, free from the fatigue of the past months and recharged for the months to come, the ELI Summer School will certainly be one of the best places to start autumn off. The laser research institute in Szeged welcomes all interested students to the 9th edition of this exciting, meaningful and motivating professional event series, hosted alternatingly by ELI ALPS and ELI Beamlines in Prague. This year it is our turn again!
The ELI Summer School aims to provide young scientists with a comprehensive overview of the generation and application of intense laser pulses and laser-driven particle and radiation sources. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in poster sessions and visit ELI ALPS’ laboratories while forging new connections with other students, speakers, and the ELI staff. Aspiring researchers will benefit from the- impressive combination of cutting-edge professional skills and networking opportunities.
Last year, the event attracted 120 students from 24 countries, including Poland, Germany, France, Italy, Greece, China, India, Israel, Pakistan and Ukraine. As a result, ELISS 2023 turned out to be one of the most successful meetings in the history of the event series.
This year, our goal is to make the event at least as successful as it was in 2023!
