Dear friends of Regensburg IP,
Following my research semester over the summer, I’m back and raring to go, and I’d like to warmly invite you to our guest lectures at the University of Regensburg this winter term. The events are open to the public; I’ll be chatting with the guests, followed by time for your questions.
Cheers, Stephan Bierling
