CMWS Graduate Workshop 2025: Connecting scales in water science
We invite you to join and present your work at the 2025 CMWS Graduate Workshop from the 22nd to 24th of September, hosted at TU Bergakademie Freiberg. The theme of the workshop is connecting the various scales of water research from attosecond excitations to millennial glacial movements, by bring together graduate students and post-doctoral fellows to share their research. There are several tour options including the active research mine Reiche Zeche, an exhausted silver mine on campus that houses several research programs.
