We would like to encourage PhD students and post-docs to participate in a special course on “Nanoscale Quantum Optics” this summer at the International School of Physics “Enrico Fermi”, which will be held in Varenna, Italy this summer from 23 to 28 July. https://www.sif.it/attivita/scuola_fermi/mmxviii#204
The “E. Fermi” Summer Schools are one of the most significant cultural activities of the Italian Physical Society (https://www.sif.it/attivita/scuola_fermi). These events are held at Villa Monastero in Varenna (Italy), and have become a special meeting opportunity for scientists and young physicists from all over the world and have reached considerable international prestige.
