Astrobiology 2017, Research meeting by IAU’s commission F3

The astrobiology community in the IAU has the tradition to hold a series of scientific meetings every three years. For a truly multidisciplinary discussion, we welcome researchers at the frontier of science from the fields of astronomy, planetary and space science, chemistry, biology, geology, philosophy, sociology and ethical issues, among others.

RED’18 – Astrobiology Introductory Course

This meeting is addressed to:
• Any student preparing his PhD thesis in Astronomy, Geology, Chemistry, Biology or History/Philosophy of sciences in France or any other country.
• Any students wishing to acquire an interdisciplinary training in astrobiology to complete their initial training and to be able to address issues at the origins of life on Earth, its evolution and its distribution in the Universe.

The program of RED’17/Astrobiology Introductory Course is complementary to that of RED’17, however it is not necessary to have followed it to participate in this new school.

The session-RED’18/Astrobiology Introductory Course will be held from 4 to 10 March 2018 in the Ornithological Park of le Teich (33, France).
