The Italian Mineralogical National Group (GNM) is pleased to announce the Mineralogical
International School “HP-HT MINERAL PHYSICS” that will be held at Bressanone
(Northern Italy) in February 2008 (11-15th, at “Casa della Gioventù” of University of
Padova, Italy). The aim of the school is to show how the experimental data collected on
minerals under non ambient conditions (HP and HT) can be crucial in petrology,
geodynamics and geophysics on a global scale. The school is directed to young
researchers in mineralogy, crystallography, petrology, and geophysics and the invited
speakers are among the most eminent scientists in the field. Theoretical and practical
lessons are scheduled. The official language of the school will be English.
Invited speakers:
Ross Angel (Virginia Tech,USA)
Nancy Ross (Virginia Tech, USA)
Sergio Speziale (GeoForschungsZentrum, Potsdam, Germany)
Jennifer Jackson (California Institute of Technology, USA)
Alessandro Pavese (Università di Milano, Italy)

Paolo Ballirano (Università “La Sapienza” di Roma, Italy)
Patrizia Fumagalli (Università di Milano, Italy)
Paolo Nimis (Università di Padova, Italy)
Taras Geyra (ETH, Zürich, Switzerland)
The registration fee will be 400-450 € and will include four night accommodation and all
meals and refreshments during the school as well as all social events. Grants to travel
expenses will be available to young scientists.
