Find out about new research in Geosciences! Support your students and colleagues!
Talks will be given by students at the beginning of their last year of PhD. Posters by the second year students. Just-arrived, 1st year students will give a 1 minute pop-up about themselves and their research topic. We will also have prizes for posters and oral presentations. There will be plenty of good science presented and on display
