EGU newsletter
The EGU newsletter is a short email publication sent to EGU members on a monthly basis. It informs the Union membership about EGU events and activities, from highlighting papers published in our open access journals to providing news relating to EGU’s scientific divisions and meetings, including the General Assembly.
EGU members are given the option to subscribe to receive the Union’s email newsletter when buying their EGU membership. Other geoscientists, members of the wider public or the media can subscribe online.
If you are an EGU member subscribed to receive the newsletter (you can check this in your User Area) but have not received the emails, please let us know, and make sure to add media@egu.eu to your address book to prevent spam filters from blocking these emails.
Current issue of the EGU newsletter
In our January issue, we are choosing to reflect on the ambition and risks of science - not a new year, new you, but rather a steady determination to discover, based on our existing, deep wells of curiosity. Catarina Aydar talks about how exploration sometimes goes hand-in-hand with tragedy with the story of the first attempt of a teacher, Christa McAuliffe, to go to space, onboard the ill-fated Challenger, whilst Sabrina Minnick, shares the triumph of Jacobus Kapteyn revealing the proper motion of the stars over 100 years ago. Astrobiological chemist Silke Asche talks about her work searching for life on other planets, and András Zlinszky shares his tips for your best EGU General Assembly yet! Also don't miss our on all the upcoming webinars, newest publications, a brand new EGU open access journal, and a job vacancy in the EGU Executive office in Munich, Germany!
All this and much more, in this month's Loupe!
