Dear all,
summer and all its conferences are not yet over and we are happily looking forward to November 2018, when ECTI 5 will be held at the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot. Save the dates 18 – 23 Nov 2018. Hopefully, our new COST application will have been accepted by then!
There are only two choices for August 2017: leave for a holiday or attend NACTI. In both cases : enjoy !
