3. School of Statistics for Astrophysics 2015

The second session of the School of Statistics for Astrophysics will take place in Les Houches, France (11-16 October, 2015) and is devoted to clustering and classification. The objective of the School of Astrostatistics 2015 is to train astronomers to the use of a large range of statistical and algorithmic approaches of unsupervised and supervised classification, from the most basic to the state-of-the-art ones, including spatial clustering, the clustering of variables and graphical methods.

4. Conference Honoring the Career of Costas Alissandrakis

On the occasion of the forthcoming retirement of Prof. Costas Alissandrakis, an international solar physics conference entitled “Multi-wavelength Studies of the Solar Atmosphere: Celebrating the Career of Costas Alissandrakis” will be held in Ioannina, Greece, 21-24 September 2015.

The conference will focus on our understanding of the solar atmosphere through observations and modeling.
