Sabrina Kainz, a junior majoring in geology at the University of Colorado-Boulder in the U.S., plans to. “As an undergraduate, taking part in a large-scale conference is an excellent chance to gain exposure to the workings of being a research geologist, but I have never been able to participate due to conflicts with classes and the lack of funds,” she says.
Home / Meetings / Galileo Conferences
A limited number, typically about one hundred, internationally recognised scientists meet for 3 to 5 days to discuss and debate issues at the forefront of the discipline. The conferences are informal: the state-of-the-art is outlined in keynote presentations designed to trigger in-depth discussion of important aspects of the conference topic. Usually about 50% of the conference time is dedicated to debate and dialogue, culminating in a final round table discussion where future research directions are included.
