Pre-conference workshops

The pre-conference workshops for students and others have become a tradition at Goldschmidt.  

One of these DINGUE VI (Developments in Noble Gas Understanding and Expertise) – was held at ETH Zurich and was well-attended by around 70 scientists from world-wide research institutions, industry and international institutions.

The participants enjoyed not only fruitful discussions on state-of-the-art noble gas research but also the social events on the Earth Sciences’ roof top.
