The XVII black holes workshop took place at the University of Aveiro, from 19-20 December 2024. Over 70 participants got involved into two intense days of seminars and discussions on this growing and fascinating research topic. See you all in Lisbon in 2025! UA coverage here.
Gr@v co-authored the article in the journal Computers in Biology and Medicine, with title “Next-generation chemotherapy treatments based on black hole algorithms: From cancer remission to chronic disease management”. This is an interdisciplinary research applying ideas from black hole physics to create a new methodology in chemotherapy treatments. See here the UA coverage.
Gr@v members C. Herdeiro, H. Olivares, and J. Novo delivered talks in the workshop "Lensing and Wave Optics in Strong Gravity", held at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics (ESI) in Vienna, Austria, from December 9-14th. The workshop also featured contributions from Gr@v members I. Sengo and P. Cunha, with P. Cunha additionally serving as a co-organizer.
An 8-month post-doctoral grant is open within the project 2024.05617.CERN, "Towards precision tests of ultralight dark matter with imaging and gravitational waves". Applications should be submitted between 15 December 2024 and 5 January 2025. More info in the attached files and the Euraxess site.
Carolina Benone, former group member, within a joint Ph.D. with UFPA-Brazil, was one of the winners of the 19th edition of "For Women in Science", an initiative carried out by the L’Oréal Group in Brazil in partnership with the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC) and UNESCO. Congratulations Carolina! More info here.
The VI Amazonian Symposium on Physics took place in UFPA, Belém, Brazil, from 18-22 November 2024, also with the partnership of the NewFunFiCO network. Many exciting talks and science and the unsurpassable hosting by the UFPA group and Brazilian collegues.
C. Herdeiro gave an invited colloquium at Scuola Superiore Meridionale, in Naples, overlooking the powerful Vesuvius. The colloquium took place in the premises of Accademia Pontaniana, the oldest Academy in Europe
