</b>we<b> </b><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">are going to</span></strong> hold an introduction course to NIRS in Netherlands aiming for new (potential) users. We thought this might be interesting for you or your colleagues
to learn more about the theory of NIRS and get first hands-on experience.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt">The course will be held on <b>15<i>th</i> of March 2024</b> at<strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">
</span></strong><b>our office, <strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">in Elst (NL)
</span></strong></b>and it will last from 9:30 am to approximately 4:30 pm. During the workshop, we will first explain the theoretical basics of Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS), introduce possible application areas and go through experimental set-ups. The
second part will be a practical hands-on session, where the acquired theoretical knowledge should be put into practice by performing different experiments with our devices from set-up to simple data analysis.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt">The attendance will be <b>free of charge</b>.<o:p></o:p></p>
