Konkoly Extragalactic Workshop

2024-03-19, Detre hall

Motivated by the possibility to collaborate more closely with each other, we decided to organise a workshop where Konkoly’s early-career scientists working on extragalactic topics give a short overview of their research projects. The goal of this first event is to set the scene for identifying common themes and methods, leading to joint initiatives and creative new lines of research using state-of-the-art data sets.
