Commission H1 The Local Universe

Meetings

This online seminar series is primarily for IAU commission H1 members, but is open to everyone who have interest in the Local Universe.

The Seminar aims to promote exchanging scientific achievements and ideas between scientists with common interests.

Seminars are held via Zoom and YouTube once per month (tentatively) and cover both hot topics and long-term work.

The seminars are recorded and listed on YouTube for asynchronous viewing: IAU commission H1 "The Local Universe" seminars
