Page History
This space is designed for participants to include the final logistics of their local workshops! If you have planned more than one, please include all workshops as separate columns. The sooner you are able to provide us with this information, the sooner we will be able to advertise your workshops!
Please do not plan any workshops for Jan 27-28, as the JWST ETC will be down for the release of ETC 1.5.1 during that time.

Email AJPW2020@uantof.cl Webpage and community communication www.astro.uantof.cl/ajpw2020 COVID-19 update: Due to the current COVID-19 crisis the president of Chile has called a Constitutional Exception of Catastrophe for 90 days to stop Covid-19 here in Chile. After discussions with the administration of the Universidad de Antofagasta, we regrettably report the cancellation of the physical meeting of AJPW2020. However,we are committed to helping our community submit good proposals to JWST GO1 cycle. Therefore due to the important nature of AJPW2020 we are making provisions to allow AJPW2020 to be accessible via remote participation on Zoom. This will allow attendees to participate without having to leave their homes during this time. https://ajpw2020.tumblr.com/post/612952843980341248/ajpw2020-covid-19-update | ||||||
