  • Include the names, affiliations and email addresses of the organisers.

    • We will aim to respond to your request as soon as possible. We will provide the Zoom or GatherTown resources needed for your session, and will help to advertise it, but, otherwise, it will be up to you to organise the contributions to your session and to host it.

    Contributed Talks

    We are soliciting a few 15-min contributed talks for the plenary programme. These should be of interest to a wide subsection of the LSSY:UK community and appropriate topics would be scientific plans, follow-up programmes, maximising UK science gains from the Rubin LSST and other UK facilities.

  • Ensure the subject reads  “Contributed talk request (Surname)"

  • Include your name, institute, position in the email, along with an abstract of no more than 200 words.

    • We will email successful applications by May 4th.

    One-slide Presentations

    We want to give as many people as possible the chance to provide a brief summary of their plans for Rubin LSST to the LSST:UK community. To that end, we are inviting one-slide presentations that can be delivered as 3-minute flash talks and/or as posters within GatherTown; our virtual conference venue in GatherTown will feature a poster area, and your avatar can stand next to your poster and you can talk to people who come to look at it.

    The meeting registration page will be include instructions for uploading submitting your one-slide presentation. If you want it to be considered for presentation as a flash talk, please complete the registration from by 16.00 on April 28th. If you only want your slide to be displayed as a poster, just complete the registration form by the general deadline of 16.00 on May 7th.
