Calendar of events 2003

Please note that participation in most seminars organised by CTA (either alone or in partnership with other organisations) is by invitation only, unless there is a general call for papers. A steering committee selects participants based on suggestions by its members. If you are interested in a particular seminar, please use the contact provided in the calendar. The contact person will forward your application to the steering committee of the event, but you will only hear from us if your request has been approved.
