The school is designed for researchers at all career stages who are particularly interested in the formation and evolution of galaxies. The school is ideally positioned to offer an up-to-date scientific perspective on the recent exciting findings in extragalactic research, especially from the JWST and other space- and ground-based facilities. An exciting and bright future […]

FPGA’s and heterogeneous SoC’s are used in an increasing number of mission critical or high reliability applications. These applications span a diverse range from industrial, medical and scientific to defense, transportation and even space. For these devices to safely and reliability operate in an often-harsh environment, a more rigorous design approach is required. One that […]

Black holes are among the most fascinating objects in the universe. From cosmological scales, galactic and stellar scales where black holes are integral pieces in the formation and evolution of different structures, to microscopic scales in which the study of the fabric of spacetime and black hole interiors are interrelated, black holes are ubiquitous in […]

Etienne Bonnassieux (SO postdoc, IAA-CSIC) IAA-CSIC, Salón de Actos 17 Sept 2025, 10-13h Radio astronomy is in the midst of a renaissance. Facilities such as LOFAR, the uGMRT and MeerKAT —pathfinders for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA)— are revealing the low‑frequency (MHz / metre wavelength regime) sky with unprecedented fidelity. Their discoveries arrive just as […]

Los Controladores Lógicos Programables (PLCs) de la empresa Beckhoff son muy usados en la actualidad en muchos campos de la ingeniería industrial. Entre ellos, en el área de la instrumentación para astronomía, ya que el Observatorio Europeo Austral (ESO) los adoptó hace años como estándar para los sistemas de control de la instrumentación desarrollada para […]

Deep learning (DL) is a family of techniques widely used in multiple fields with excellent results. Unfortunately, DL has a steep  learning curve. Fortunately, several domain-specific libraries have been developed to facilitate the use of DL models. For the widespread adoption of these techniques, researchers should be able to design and use their own DL […]

IAA-CSIC, Salón de Actos31 Oct 2025, 9-11h and 12-14h Objectives After this seminar, you will know how to: Protect your research results with legal instruments (patents, copyright, etc.) Not to infringe the intellectual property rights of others Disseminate your research results following the principles of open science Contents Introduction Basic notions on Intellectual Property Rights […]
