Tech Talks

A Forum to Connect the Rubin Software Community

Delivered virtually every second Thursday of the month at 10am Pacific (1pm ET, 2pm Chile (September/October), 7pm CET) these talks and demos will showcase work done by the broad Rubin software and archives community that’s designed to enable LSST science. We hope it will provide a forum for a range of groups and authors to present, learn about, and discuss efforts of interest to analysis of LSST data.

Upcoming talks

October 12, 2023: Planning for two million volunteers: Citizen Science Infrastructure at LSST scale (Chris Lintott)

November 9, 2023: AI for (climate) good (speaker from Inria Chile)
