Dear colleagues,

I am happy to let you know that we have opened the call for applications to attend the INTERNATIONAL POSTGRADUATE WORKSHOP 2018 (IPW 2018).
 
IPW 2018 will be held at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC) by 17-18 October in Santiago de Chile. We have a selected group of expert researchers from different institutions from Germany, The Netherlands, Mexico, Spain, and Chile. We already count with the confirmation of a group of 25 doctoral students and further 10 students from Chile. We encourage you to invite your students and colleagues to attend the IPW 2018 and share their experience in person-to-person bases between students and consolidated researchers. 
 
We aim to bring opportunities to your students and yourself as a consolidated researcher to establish a new network of collaboration for future joint plans of development of your research area.
