I will definitely be there. I don't think I'll have anything to present given I still work on my PhD and does not have the capacity to start a new project, but it seems like a great opportunity for networking.
ReplyDeleteDear Nazia and Tolken,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your encouragement. And from two such different parts of the world. It would be nice to meet you in person at Forlì.
