 The 2nd CDT Easter School, in April 2016 at the University of Liverpool – themed on ‘Systems Approaches to Risk Assessment and Management’ – provides the unique opportunity for delegates to learn directly from the following 3 experts:

  • Assistant Professor Nicola Pedroni, University Centrale Paris / Supelec, France

  • Dr Mike Poole, Radioactive Waste Management Ltd, Oxford, UK

  • Professor Ioannis Stratis, National University of Athens, Greece

Each of these experts is giving a series of master-classes, these inclusive of problem-based interactive elements. At the end of each day of the programme, delegates also have the option to gain more targeted guidance from holding individual (surgery-style) meetings with the visiting experts related to their specific research activities.

Attendance at the Easter School 2016 is free of charge.
