Moons of the Solar System - Summer School
June 26-30, 2024
An introduction to the Summer School
The Origins Institute at Aix-Marseille University does forefront scientific and technological research with the mission of contributing to our understanding of the origins of planetary systems, as well as the conditions of emergence of life, and the characterization of possible habitats in other planetary environments.
Our institute organizes an international Summer School for Master and PhD students, as well as early career scientists, every year over the summer, usually between end of June and mid-July. The 2023 international Summer School will be dedicated to the study of solar system moons, but a different topic will be proposed for each year. Students from everywhere have the opportunity to broaden their knowledge, network with researchers and use the experience acquired for their thesis, PhD or post-doc research in the future.
The Summer School Moons of the Solar System and Pleine Lune avril, organized in collaboration with the European Astrobiology Institute, is scheduled for June 26-30, 2023 at the Observatoire de Haute-Provence, France.
