Training Events – International Schools
Three intensive international schools each focussing on one of the application areas of the project: Prosthetics, Robotics and Technologies for touch. 5 days of research related frontal lectures in the morning, hands-on tutorials, coding sessions or discussion groups in the afternoon and invited talks in the evenings. Two days will be dedicated to soft skills training.
