The first on-site status workshop will be held on 05.05. and 06.05.22 in Aachen. The meeting will take place in the SuperC building of the RWTH. Here, all project participants will come together and present the interim status of their respective projects. In addition, a half-day PhD students' day will be held after the conference to give young scientists the opportunity to network.
