WORKSHOP JUSTIFICATION:
There has recently been great progress in our understanding of the Origins
of Life, Chemistry of the Universe, Extrasolar Planetary Systems, and the
Search for Life in the Solar System and beyond. These themes bloomed with
the creation of Astrobiology, a truly interdisciplinary science that is
getting scientists from different areas and from everywhere to work
together. We are organizing "ASTROBIO 2013", an International
Workshop with the aims to cover the major topics on Astrobiology, to
identify opportunities for new studies, and to promote the development of
the local community on the subject.
This Workshop is intended for professional scientists, post-docs, and
students active in the areas of Astronomy, Biology, Physics, Engineering,
Medicine, Chemistry, Planetary Physics, Geology and related subjects.
