First talk by the David Klug on "Multidimensional Infrared Spectroscopy".

Talk by Michael Först (Center for Free Electron Laser Science, Hamburg) on femtosecond X-ray spectroscopy

This was followed by a talk from Klaas Wynne (Glasgow University) on terahertz spectroscopies and from John Tisch (Imperial College) on attosecond spectroscopy.
