(This stands for National Institute for Nuclear Physics - Italy/US Department of Energy, it's a joint program). I applied and I was accepted, but I really don't know anything about this. It does sound rather exciting to go to Italy, but since it's a pretty big move i'd like to know if anyone has any prior experience/knowledge of this program, or even of the institute involved. Honest answers/further info would be greatly appreciated.:smile:

That's a bit weird considering Italy has no nuclear reactors.

But good luck! It should be fun whatever you do :)
 
Btw, the above isn't proper Italian. Italy should be a great place to stay in but I have no info on the program.
 
Ah thanks I have not spoken italian in 15 years. Surprised that I even remembered a litte. I tried say Hi, How are you? I am fine. Where do you live?
