We are confident that the event can take place in Zürich, as most restrictions due to the pandemic should have been lifted by August. In case it turns out that it is not possible to hold the Summer School you will be informed as soon as possible.

Venue

The conference will take place at the University of Zurich on the Irchel campus in lecture hall Y15-G-40
