Every year in August we organize the International Science Camp (ISC) for participants from all over the world. You choose three week-long courses and combine them into an extraordinary experience of science. English is the working language. A symposium finalizes the camp when you present your experimental approaches, experiences and results.
On weekends and in the evenings we arrange a cultural and social program. Social contacts among students from different cultural backgrounds are as important as experimental work and scientific learning.
