The next annual meeting of the Ireland and UK Hub of the Europlanet Society will be held online on Tuesday 22 June 2021.
This 2nd meeting aims to reflect the broad range of research and outreach activities within the Ireland-UK planetary science communities, as well as showcase the ongoing development of planetary science infrastructures and facilities. The format of the meeting will be a mixture of invited and solicited talks and poster presentations. We particularly encourage presentations from early career researchers and scientists who have disseminated their work via Europlanet networking workshops and/or research infrastructure. Prizes will be awarded for the best student and early career presentations. Details of this year’s awardees.
