CISPAC has launched a training programme aimed at its research community to promote knowledge and use of the equipment available at the Computational, Remote Sensing and 3D Modelling Laboratory, a key infrastructure for advancing research at the centre
The centre’s own programme will support new collaborative proposals led by CISPAC postdoctoral researchers. The selected projects address issues such as rural memory, care, open science, the archaeological heritage of the eastern mountain ranges and living conditions in early medieval Compostela.
The Faculty of Geography and History of the USC will host the conference “A longa historia do foro. The epic history of property in Galicia on the centenary of the decree for the redemption of foros” on 26 June. Organised by the Histagra group with the collaboration of CISPAC, the event will bring together specialists in medieval, modern and contemporary history to analyse the evolution of the foro, its impact on the Galician agrarian question and the debates that remain open around land ownership.
On Tuesday, 23 June, at 11:00, the Lar do CISPAC will host a new session of the Thesis Discussion series, featuring Serena Cuomo and Francesco Aresti, researchers at the Universidade de Santiago de Compostela and members of the international AntCom network. The talks will address, respectively, the circulation of iconographic models in 14th-century Paduan-Venetian manuscript illumination and contemporary processes of heritage construction around the Tower of Hercules.
CISPAC is offering six grants to enable undergraduate and master’s students to undertake training placements linked to the centre’s research projects during the month of July. The grants, funded by the Regional Ministry of Education, Science, Universities and Vocational Training, must be applied for before 10 June.
