Typically the program consists of 10-15 plenary lectures, each two-three hours long and shorter one-hour contributions by invited speakers, and a number of 20 min. talks by young scientists. Lecture sessions are arranged in the mornings and in the evenings. Afternoons are left free for discussions.

Participants are expected to be at the level of last year MSc, PhD and/or young post-docs working in the fields covered by the School. The School typically accommodates up to 70 participants.
