Second Astrobiology Graduate Conference

When August 17, 2005 (Wed) ~ August 21, 2005 (Sun)

Where

Since the birth of the Astrobiology discipline, there has been a need for a forum where graduate students and young researchers can present their research and discuss the field of astrobiology among peers. This conference hopes to provide that forum and meet the following goals:

• Provide a forum where graduate students can give scientific lectures to their peers
• Introduce students to astrobiology science in disciplines other than their own.
• Train the next leaders in astrobiology research
• Provide a situation where a student can enhance their own network of possible collaborators, contacts and resources.
• Provide the opportunity for graduate students to come together and create/foster new interdisciplinary collaborative research and friendships.
