Lecture
Ancient fires, ultra-hot rocks and the formation of planets


Date: 6/4/23     Time: 7:45 pm

The student forum has become a regular feature of our programme, giving graduate students from the Department of Earth Sciences an opportunity to tell the FGC about the exciting work that they are doing, and for the FGC to learn how these young and enthusiastic researchers are chipping away at the frontiers of earth science. The forum will take the form of a 15-minute presentation by each of the students followed by discussion with the audience. They will love to have your feedback, and to answer your questions.
