The 1st N4E User's Meeting will take place in Madrid on June 19-20, 2013.

This event, which is open to N4E Project Consortium Members and to all Associate Partners, is an opportunity to meet, exchange ideas, explore synergies and get to know each other better, with special emphasis on how to continue collaborations and common activities beyond project duration.

The meeting will include oral presentations (with questions and answers), and lots of opportunities to discuss possible collaborations and future common activities. Each institution will be given the opportunity to present their activities and results.

Deadline for submission of abstracts: 31st of May. The final schedule and program will be published shortly after reception of abstracts. The meeting will tentatively start on June 19 in the early afternoon, and finish on June 20 after lunch.

Thank you very much in advance for your participation. We look forward to have a very fruitful 1st User's Meeting counting on the collaborative and pro-active attitude of all member and associate members of N4E.
