CABRI-Volga
Cooperation Along a Big RIver: Institutional coordination among stakeholders for environmental management in the Volga basin

The CABRI-Volga project is funded by the European Commission under the International Cooperation (INCO) Programme.

CABRI-Volga is an international coordination action to facilitate cooperation and to coordinate research in environmental risk management in large river basins in the EU, Russia & the New Independent States (NIS).

The project workplan has a two-year duration (December 2004 - November 2006).

RFBR-INTAS supported Summer School on
Advances in Quantum Field Theory, Statistical Mechanics and Dynamical Systems
Villa Olmo, Como (Italy)
7-20 September 1998

In the frame of the RFBR-INTAS (Russian Foundation for Basic Research - International Association for the Promotion of Cooperation with Scientists from the Independent States of the Former Soviet Union), the UNESCO International School of Science for P eace with its major partner the Landau Network-Centro Volta, organizes at Villa Olmo, Como (Italy), in the period 7-20 September 1998, a RFBR-INTAS School on "Advances in Quantum Field Theory, Statistical Mechanics and Dynamical Systems". The main proposal of the School is devoted to an analysis of a wide range of advanced problems in modern quantum field theory and statistical mechanics, as well as of the related mathematical structures. The main topics covered are: conformal field theory and integrable models; string theory, p-membrane theory and quantum gravity; Batalin-Vilkovysky quantization schemes; quantum group structures; duality.

Summer School on
Turbolence: Theoretical Concepts and Industrial Applications
Villa Olmo, Como (Italy)
7-12 September 1998

The School is devoted to enrich the background knowledge of young scientists and industrial experts working in the field of turbolence and related topics. The main goal of the School is to encourage transfer of knowledge between the scientific world and the industry, providing scientific support to high-tech industrial applications and, at the same time, acting as an incentive to young researchers to become aware of the needs of the real world industry.
