NAM 2023 - Origins

 

Scientific Rationale

NAM2023 aims to provide a space for the UK astronomy community to come together. The scientific sessions are proposed by the attendees and allow discussion of the key results that are driving our field. In this NAM we have added the opportunity for a sub-set of these sessions to be larger in scope, allowing for more in-depth coverage of exciting areas that match the theme of “Origins”, interpreted broadly. In addition, sessions at NAM2023 will highlight key issues relevant to the UK astronomical community, such as sustainability, engagement, diversity and inclusion. We hope you will join us.

Have a look at the list of plenary talks and parallel sessions running at NAM2023, including the Key "Origins" sessions, Regular sessions, and Specialist lunch sessions. You can also check out the preliminary block schedule (subject to change) for the full programme of planned activities.
