Thank you Gavin and Andras for the webinar. Very helpful and informative! I am not sure @Gavin if you could still see my last message regarding PIC. I was suggesting whether it’s possible to post in the group basic information about IGDORE as a corporate institution (PIC, official address for contact, etc) as prospective applicants may need it during the application process. Thank you again!
