The year 2013 is the centenary of the birth of Bruno Pontecorvo, one of the great physicists of the 20th century and a pioneer of high-energy physics. To honour his memory as a person and a scientist, the Physics Department of University of Rome "La Sapienza", is organizing an International Meeting on 11 and 12 September 2013. Bruno Pontecorvo’s life was characterized by his important, ground-breaking scientific ideas as well as by his ideological choices, sometimes dramatic, which marked his destiny as a man and a scientist. The meeting will be a fitting tribute to the memory of the youngest “ragazzo di Via Panisperna”, an opportunity to encounter and celebrate his scientific vision and his civil commitment.
