1st live meeting: DPC afternoon meeting for all new PI’s

How do the Dutch funding instruments work? Are there any special opportunities for you as new PI’s? How to become (even more) engaged with the scientific community in The Netherlands? These and many more questions will be addressed in an informative meeting which is organised for all new group leaders and principal investigators (PI’s), active in any field of physics. We especially encourage participation of those who came to The Netherlands in the last years. This meeting helps you to familiarise yourself with various aspects of the Dutch research landscape and is organised by the Dutch Physics Council, with support of the NWO Round Table Physics
