"In search of the definitive energy": a scientific conference in the V edition of the Tuesday of the Paraninfo

The University of Zaragoza has organised the 5th edition of "Los martes del Paraninfo". An initiative in which, through an extensive programme of lectures given by emeritus professors from the University, topics of interest in various fields of science and knowledge will be addressed. The lecturers, after completing their legal active period, have been chosen 'emeritus' by the University, because of their curriculum and their prestige, and they continue to carry out research and teaching work.
