May 19 (2 PM) – May 21 (~12 noon)
Organized by CETHIL (CNRS, INSA Lyon, Université Lyon 1)
The main objectives are to favor:
– discussions with scientists whose expertise is likely to meet the scientific challenges addressed by the research network TREE,
– new actions and collaborations, in France and with colleagues from foreign institutions.
