›Australian ALMA community workshop

The purpose of this workshop is to discuss:

• ALMA's Cycle 1 Capabilities
• Support for successful Australian-led proposals
• Science projects that take advantage of ALMA's unique capabilities

Day one of the workshop will focus on talks from ALMA experts on the current status, expected Cycle 1 capabilities, early science results, and user support centres. Day two will focus on ALMA science projects in the form of both invited and contributed talks. We would like these talks to focus on both early science with ALMA and future science projects that make use of ALMA's unique capabilities. If you are a member of a team that was awarded ALMA early science time, we encourage you to showcase any preliminary data or to present an overview of the project. We'd also love to hear ideas on what students and postdocs plan to do with ALMA in the future.

This workshop will also provide a way to measure local interest in ALMA and highlight future science projects. It presents a great opportunity for the community to learn about this new facility, to meet some of the key people involved, and to discuss future projects utilising ALMA. We encourage everyone to attend, especially students.
