​Scientific topics
 - An update on AGB and Super-AGB models.
 - Dust formation from AGB stars and SNe
 - Mass-Mcore relations. The boundary in mass
   with SN II explosions and the mass transition
   from super-AGB to AGB.
 - Evolution into SNII, electron-capture SNe,
   SNIa, subtypes.
 - Observed rates of different types of SNe
   in different contexts. 
 

---

- Binary population synthesis for SNIa rates.
   Binary evolution to SNII. 
 - Role of super-AGB stars and SN explosions in
   the context of the formation of multiple
   populations in Globular Clusters.
 - Observational constrains on AGB,
   super-AGB and massive stars populations,
​   obscured and not.
