Midlands Graduate School: Accommodation and second (final) call for participation

[Nicolai Kraus]

Dear all,

I'm aware that some people interested in our spring school found that the on-campus accommodation had been booked out. I'm happy to announce that we have secured additional en-suite bedrooms on campus, just a couple of meters away from the event. Registration is still open until March 21 and bedrooms are now available again. Please forward the below advertisement to all interested students, academics, or professionals!
