L’Université de Gand annonce la tenue de la série de séminaires suivants :
The program (including abstracts and speaker bios) and registration details can be found here. Registration is in Dutch, but this can easily be mechanically translated by Google or a comparative service. Please note that for each lecture there is the option to register for in person or online participation. Take note that online registration options falls immediately below the in person registration for each lecture (so each talk appears to have two registration options). If you experience trouble with registration please contact cbs@ugent.be.
