Course Date: Fri 15 Feb 2019
Location on this date: KS - Keeley StreetIn this talk Professor Crawford will summarise the new interdisciplinary science of astrobiology -- the search for life in the universe.

Ian Crawford is an astronomer and planetary scientist, and is currently Professor of Planetary Science and Astrobiology at Birkbeck College, University of London.
