Results from the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission to Comet  67P/Churyumov Gerasimenko are leading to a revolution in our understanding of these ancient bodies, and hence the conditions prevalent in the early Solar System. This meeting will report on all  aspects of the mission's ground-breaking discoveries, placing them in the context of cometary science as a whole.

This event is free to attend, but **advance registration is essential**. An optional evening poster session will also be held. Details of the meeting are available here:
