ESO scientists working in Chile are engaged in forefront research using facilities provided at the ESO offices in Santiago. These include a well equipped library, computing resources, programmes for visiting scientists, and a lively scientific environment. ESO also maintains close ties with other observatories and universities throughout Chile.

In these ESO/Santiago Science Activities pages you can obtain information about the ESO scientists currently working in Chile and their research interests, as well as the Santiago visitors programme. Several other pages related to the Observatory on La Silla, the Observatory on Paranal, APEX and ALMA will give you a complete panorama of ESO activities in Chile.

Information about workshops, meetings, colloquia and seminars, both for Santiago and Garching, can be obtained from the Scientific meetings page and links therein.
We hope you will find the information you are looking for and we welcome your comments or suggestions.
