The organising committee of Hermes 2018 comprises of PhD students from variious academic disciplines and institutions | just like all the participants. A handful of us attended Hermes 2016 and, inspired by our enjoyable experience, we decided to lead the organisation of the next Hermes summer school. As we progressed, we were fortunate to get more students interested in helping out. This is how our Hermes 2018 committee was formed. The whole team has come together, each bringing their own ideas and enthusiasm to make this event happen and to ensure that your

experience is just as good than our own one, if not better!
