2021 Spring Collaboration Meeting

8 Mar 2021, 07:00 → 12 Mar 2021, 15:30 America/Los_Angeles

Online Only

Abigail Crites (University of Toronto;Dunlap Institute), Bobby Besuner (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory), Darcy Barron (University of New Mexico), Jeffrey Filippini (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Johanna Nagy (Washington University St. Louis;McDonnell Center for the Space Sciences), John Carlstrom (University of Chicago;Argonne National Laboratory), John Ruhl (Case Western Reserve University;), Julian Borrill (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory & UC Berkeley), Kevin Huffenberger (Florida State University), Maria Salatino (Stanford University;), Zhilei Xu (MIT)

The primary focus of this meeting will be reviewing the status of the preliminary baseline design ahead of the next round of agency reviews, including validating that it meets the measurement and science requirements. There will also be significant collaboration business, including continuing our work on diversity, equity, and inclusion; reviewing the draft code of conduct; and preparing for the upcoming elections.

Please familiarize yourself with the meeting code of conduct and respect it in all conference venues.

Connect to the meeting using the zoom app (version 5.3 or later), set your name to "First Last (preferred pronouns)", and mute your microphone. To ask a question please raise your hand or post it to the chat.

Anyone can add to the google notes docs. Please be sure to use the correct doc for the session - the one linked to the session if there is one, or the general doc linked at the top of the agenda otherwise - and sign your entries if they require follow-up.

Questions/comments for the Town Hall can be added to the Town Hall doc, anonymously if you prefer.
