European ALMA School

/in , , , , /by

In June the European ALMA regional center organised the first European ALMA school, hosted by the UK regional node in Manchester. The school was a full week of lectures and hands-on activities related to interferometry, and ALMA specifically. Topics ranged from calibration techniques, to the specifics of the products that ALMA delivers, to an overview of the science that’s been done with ALMA over its 10-year lifespan. On top of the lectures, there was a visit to Jodrell Bank Observatory. With about 70 participants, the school was a big success, and we are looking forward to planning similar events in the future!
