The National Astronomy Meeting 2023

Cardiff University, 3^rd - 7^th July 2023

The Royal Astronomical Society is proud to present the next National Astronomy Meeting, NAM2023, to be hosted by The Cardiff Hub for Astrophysical Research and Technology (CHART) and the Gravity Exploration Institute (GEI), both part of the School of Physics and Astronomy at Cardiff University, from Monday 3rd July to Friday 7th July, 2023.

NAM2023 will strive to cover the full range of astronomy research in the UK and also on other issues relevant to the UK astronomy community. In addition to the normal format of sessions typical of previous NAM editions, this year's NAM will also have longer key sessions under the overarching theme of Origins. Beside the UK’s astronomy community, the meeting includes the UK Solar Physics (UKSP), and the Magnetosphere Ionosphere and Solar-Terrestrial (MIST) communities.

NAM2023 will be a hybrid conference. By using a hybrid model we hope to allow as many people as possible to experience the conference and learn about the exciting astronomy and space science research being conducted around the UK and further afield.

The organisers of NAM2023 have made sustainability a high priority, and thus will aim to minimise waste produced during the meeting and highly encourage delegates from the UK to use public transport when travelling to Cardiff.

Registration for NAM2023 is now OPEN!
