VIRTUAL GEMINI SCIENCE MEETING

Gemini Observatory is excited to host its first-ever virtual science meeting! We envision this meeting as a combination of invited talks, observatory updates, hands-on training sessions, and generous time for questions and discussion. There will be a special focus on upcoming instrumentation. This meeting is meant to bridge the gap between the last Gemini science meeting in 2018 and the next in-person meeting, currently planned for 2022. Due to the limited time, contributed talks will not be solicited. 

For more information, please see the meeting website here.
