VR Symposium @ VU

The Network Institute’s VR group invites to to join our morning symposium on VR in research and education at the VU. We have an interesting list of speakers introducing you to their take and use on Virtual Reality in academia. There will be plenty of time afterwards for a few quick demos and getting to know the other VR-enthousiasts!
