Preparations for the 27th Goldschmidt conference, which will be held in Paris on the August 13-18, are now well underway and we are pleased to be able to open for abstract submission and registration.
Abstracts
Abstract submission is now open. Full details of how to prepare and submit your abstract are available online as is the full list of sessions you may submit to. The abstract deadline is 1 April 2017.
Student Program
Goldschmidt2017 will be hosting a variety of events aimed at early career scientists throughout the meeting. We warmly encourage delegates to take advantage of these learning and networking opportunities. These opportunities will include the popular mentor program, Meet the Plenary lunches, and (new for Goldschmidt2017) Pop-Up Talks. More details on the various student events can be found on the student page of the website.
Registration and Social Events
Registration is now open, members of affiliated societies can book early registration for only 490€ and students can register from 295€. This early discounted rate will only be available until 13 June 2017. As well the usual Ice-Breaker welcome event on the Sunday evening, we plan to hold a conference banquet on board Parisian river boats. Delegates will have the chance to sail up river in the setting sun and eat dinner as you pass under the lights of some of the most beautiful architecture in the world.
Field Trips
If you are travelling to Paris from abroad you may wish to take the chance to visit some of the local sites of geochemical interest. An exciting range of field trips are available to book through your account. You can find more details on the field trips page of the website.
Goldschmidt Needs Student Helpers
If your spoken English is excellent you can apply for 4 or 6 days volunteering: helping out on registration, in science sessions and all around the conference. Team members receive waived registration and an honorarium. Applications must be made by filling in the online application form by the close of abstract submission on 1 April 2017. For more information go to the Student helpers page on the website.
We look forward to welcoming you to stunning Paris.
Best wishes,
