    • There are 3 computers and several printers at the station available for the participants. But if possible, bring a portable computer. This will facilitate faster data analysis and preparation of presentations.

    • The station lies almost directly at the beach and there are good opportunities for nice walks in the surroundings. The weather in Rønbjerg in early May is unpredictable and can range from cold, wet and windy to warm and sunny. The last course had mostly sunny weather for a week (and some people even went swimming in the Limfjord), but be sure to bring clothing for both the worst and best case scenario.
