THE MEETING HAD TO  BE CANCELED DUE TO COVID

We hope to be back in 2022 with another exciting winter school! The topic of Skience in 2022 will be open community scientific software training, development, and maintenance. In addition to classic training of some open software (like ObsPy, specfem, seissol and others) we will foster discussions around the problem maintaining widely used scientific simulation software on a professional level. 

We carefully  monitor the situation with the pandemic and are able to keep the reservation of the venue open until early February. If you are interested in participating we strongly encourage you to give your name in the form accessible here as an expression of interest.

More information will follow in January 2022.
