The first Summer School of the SMART (Small Medicines Advanced Research Training) Project will be organised in Bari from 19th to 23rd September 2016.

SMART is a EU funded project aimed at raising the Instytut Pomnik Centrum Zdrowia Dziecka (IPCZD – Poland) staff’s research profile and increase capacity in providing innovative paediatric research methods. A specific training programme is foreseen including the organisation of staff exchanges, face to face courses and summer schools.
