The 50th Nordic Seminar in Seismology was made successful by the approximately 40 people who attended the meeting. For the anniversary program Ola Dahlman gave an inspiring talk on what can be achieved if you really set your mind to it. His talk was followed by interesting anecdotes, fun pictures and very serious observations through the 50 years of monitoring nuclear tests. Attendees where the usual blend of Nordic, and this year Baltic and German, seismic network operators, analysts, researchers and students. We also had the pleasure to welcome attendees from seismically interested industries. The program and abstracts can be found on the Program page.

The seminar was held at Eklundshof's conference center on the esker in Uppsala, see the Venue page for more information. We had the conference dinner at Heart & Bones, a much appreciated couple of hours.
