Scientific Meeting
The first scientific meeting within the eVITA program is organized January 29-30, 2007 at Dr. Holms Hotel, Geilo. The primary target for the meeting is connected to eVITA and prospective applicants to the program. However, the meeting is also open for participants from universities, research institutions, government and industry, who are interested in getting to know new results, theories and methods from the the eVITA program and eScience in general.
