The ESERA Board has selected a team lead by Iva Stuchlikova from the University of South Bohemia to host the ESERA Summer School in 2017. The location will be on the campus of the University in České Budějovice in the Czech Republic. Iva and her group also hosted the 2016 Summer School. Since the 2017 Summer School is a trial of holding consecutive year summer schools, the Board sought to reduce the difficulties in going to a new location by returning to České Budějovice in 2017. Iva will serve as a co-opted member of the ESERA Board until after the 2017 conference in Dublin.
