15-20 OCTOBER 2017
Lake Como School of Advanced Studies Ph.D. Course on Chemical, Geological and Environmental Sciences (Milano Bicocca, Italy)
The international School will present the state of the art of research studying the forms, the paths and the processes of Carbon in the Earth, in order to address the long-‐term fate of Carbon on the planet.
The School will consist of a series of invited lectures, practical sessions on cutting-edge techniques, and contributions from partcipants.
This 5-days School is intended to bring together scientsts, Ph.D. students and Post-‐Docs
with broad international representation in geochemistry, petrology, experimental mineralogy and petrology, materials science, thermodynamics, volcanology, geodynamics, and geophysics.
