Due to the current health emergency, the courses of the Varenna International School of Physics 2020 have been postponed to 2021
The 106th National Congress of the Italian physical Society will be held at the Dipartimento di Fisica "Aldo Pontremoli", Università degli Studi di Milano from 14 to 18 September 2020.
If you have not done it yet, this is an invitation to join the SIF or renew your SIF membership!
The strength and the impact of a Society like the SIF depend on the number and the dynamism of its Members. For this you are invited to join or renew your membership of the Italian Physical Society.
