ENBIT Workshop 2018

The workshop of the ENBIT consortium, Data Sharing & Tools for Brain Tumour Imaging, will be held in Brussels, at The Egg, Rue Bara 175, on May 31st 2018.

This meeting will be a place to discuss the creation, maintenance, and usage of a database of clinical images from brain tumors.

Attendance

The workshop is free of charge, and four student travel grants are available. Interested and motivated researchers are welcome to apply. The capacity is limited.

Where and when?

The workshop will take place at the conference space The Egg, 10 minutes walk from Brussels South station, on the 31th of May 2018, from 9 am to 5.30pm.

The final date to confirm your registration is Sun, May 20, 2018 . Please register only if you actually plan to come, otherwise food, money, and space will be wasted.
