General Seminars

General Seminars are held on Thursdays, 11.00-12.00, in the period between September and July. The Seminar program embraces all areas of astrophysics and related technologies, and is aimed at sharing new scientific results with the entire Observatory community.

The Colloquia Organizing Team (Davide Fedele, Francesco Belfiore, Barbara Olmi, Carolina Belli) is responsible for selecting and scheduling the general seminars, and is always looking for suggestions for potential speakers.
