Simulation modelling - AGRO interdisciplinary theme day

You are invited for the next AGRO interdisciplinary theme day on Simulation Modelling in 1427-246, Studenterhuset

Info about event

Time

Friday 20 June 2025,  at 09:30 - 15:00

Next AGRO interdisciplinary theme day is on SIMULATION MODELING. We meet to share knowledge, expertise and experience with process-based simulation modelling across different scales to create awareness across AGRO about our simulation modelling activities and inspire collaboration among modellers.

We aim

  • to identify obvious synergies, that will call for immediate joint activities
  • to foster a collaborative spirit among modellers, that will allow us to complement each other in future model development

The day is organised with a series of lectures, covering both technical introductions to models and modelling tools and concrete applications of these.

Everyone is welcome, as the theme days are arranged for offering opportunity to:

  • Create networking
  • Increase knowledge on each other’s research areas across sections
  • Promote opportunities for collaboration

Registration is necessary for catering.
