Testimonials

PlasmaSurf summer school is such an open program that we would recommend it not only to people that already have interest in plasma, but to every physics student with passion for learning new things and pushing their limits far beyond expected.

No other summer school is likely to offer such a programme, and certainly not in a rich and historical city like Lisbon

One of the main goals of the course is to promote a lively interaction between the students and lecturers during the breaks, visits and lunchtime. In addition to lectures and laboratory visits there will be plenty of outdoor activities - including surfing!

PlasmaSurf is organized by Instituto de Plasmas e Fusão Nuclear, a research unit of Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Lisbon.
