Mini-Workshops
The SIMU Programme can support mini-workhops, where a few people meet to achieve a scientific or planning task with a very specific aim relevant to the objectives of SIMU. Actual costs of travel (on the basis of APEX fares) and accomodation and a per diem allowance (30.5 EURO) for each participant will be reimbursed by the ESF secretariat upon receipt of original used tickets for travel and bills for accomodation. These should be sent to the ESF secretariat.

Proposals should be written using the attached tex template , and can be sent at any time by email to the SIMU Chairman , Pter Nielaba for prompt consideration by the steering committee.

The ESF SIMU programme should be acknowledged in any publications that may arise due the support of the mini-workshop, and the complete reference of the article(s) (title, authors, journal) should be sent by email to the SIMU Chairman
