4. 1st SCHOOL IN FUSION PHYSICS AND TECHNOLOGY
This is an activity organized by the Association on an annual basis, with the aim of educating students (from diverse institutions and with diverse background) on basic aspects of Fusion Physics and Technology, of informing them of the scientific and technological advances on the subject (primarily, those related to the work of the research teams of the Association), by bringing together scientists and students from all participating institutions. During the reporting period, this school was organized at the University of Thessaly (16-21 May 2002) under the auspices of the Administrative Committee of the Research Unit of the Association. During this 5-day school, the research activities of the Greek members of the Association were presented and a series of lectures on fusion relevant subjects were given by a number of Greek experts on Fusion to an audience of 30 graduate students and young scientists. In order of presentation, the following talks were given:
A. Grecos: Introduction to Plasma and Magnetofluidmechanics
