Besides the renowned Solvay conferences, the International Solvay Institutes host each year several international workshops on topical questions at the frontiers of science.
These workshops are organized in collaboration with teams from the ULB and the VUB.
Workshop suggestions in fields of strength at the ULB and the VUB (in physics, chemistry or related areas) are welcome and should be made to the Director or any member of the local scientific committee.
