Aim of the 2-day course
These lectures are aimed at early-stage scientists with little or no previous experience with the LaTeX markup language. At the end of the course the participants will know how to structure a document, how to include the most commonly used floating environments, how to manage bibliographic references and what extra packages they can use. Depending on time availability we will take a look at templates for theses and templates from scientific journals that ask you to send your work in LaTeX format.
...
- If you use mendeley to manage your literature collection, you can export your references in bibTeX format and use it directly for your document
- Any kind of computer language - I obtain resume .tex files automatically from scripts

Instructions
It is mandatory to arrive with a working LaTeX installation. This includes an editor of your choice, you can try different ones and opt for the preferred one. Here you can find installation instructions and a list of some available editors, but feel free to google and choose others. I only use Linux OS but if you have troubles with installation on Windows/Mac machines please get in touch reasonably soon.
