The ADMIRA Project (Activities with Medipix Detectors to Investigate Radiation in the classroom) aims to create a network of schools around the use of Timepix Detectors designed at CERN. The objective is to bring the Institutes closer to the research done in Universities and Research Centers.

The conference will talk about what is dark matter. If we don't see it, how we can talk about it? A review to its observation fundamentals and its state-of-the-art.

Register to the conference here.
