LSST:UK All Hands 2021 meeting : Programme

This is a virtual meeting on 11th - 13th May. To facilitate informal interactions, it will use a virtual conference venue in GatherTown, as well as having more conventional talk sessions delivered through Zoom.

Additionally, before the first day and after the second two days there will be two-hour GatherTown sessions in which to catch up with colleagues, read posters, and organise small group meetings. Most sessions are plenary but there are some parallel Focus Sessions.

All sessions are in Zoom, except for those in purple, which take place in GatherTown. Connections details for both online tools will be sent to registered attendees. Those new to GatherTown may wish to look at our How to use Gather.town for the LSST:UK conference page, while we also have a Slack LSST:UK Guide explaining the Slack channels we have set up to support the meeting.

Tuesday 11th May [10:30 - 17:00 BST]
