Much of it is also very informal, and should be seen as workshop notes!This page gives details of the workshop events, in chronological order. Links to additional materials (e.g. lecture recordings, pdf, blog notes are linked). For most lectures ICTP EyA recordings are available, and linked below. For reference, the full programme is available from ICTP-SDU. The program is also available grouped by themes and speakers: ICTP Workshop 2007/Strands.
