On July 9, 2018 the science staff will meet in the auditorium (14:00) to discuss proposals for workshops and smaller meetings to be held at STScI in 2019.
Proposers should provide basic information on their meeting below; template headings are provided that you can fill in.
You can post your presentation slides below; please do so by July 3. They should include:
- Workshop title and proposer/PI

- What similar meetings are known at this time?
- Who will be on the SOC?

Enabling Multi-Messenger Astrophysics in the Big Data Era
Proposer:
Gautham Narayan
Preferred dates (optional), with comments
Either 2 days book-ended with 2019 Spring Symposium, or stand-alone 2.5 day workshop in Spring 2019.
This workshop was planned together with the Spring Symposium and we feel there are many scientific and logistical advantages to running both symposium and workshop back-to-back, though both stand on their own.
