CECAM Webinars

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Thank you for being so numerous in joining the first CECAM webinar series! Based on input from the community, we have added a fourth event to the initiative:

Two more seminars (one with two speakers) will be broadcasted live on Tuesday May 12 15:00-16:45 CEST at

This will be the last instalment of the series, but stay tuned for future initiatives.

Be well,

PS So far, we have been blessed with good fortune in our broadcasts. However, the last leg of a journey is often the most dangerous and Mr. Murphy is a cunning adversary. Should there be serious problems while we are live on Tuesday, we ask for your understanding. All seminars will be recorded and will be available long-term on the CECAM website.
