Description

The purpose of the meeting is to get an update on the science that is going on within our SWG, to consolidate collaborations within the Science Cluster, to finalize possible talks to be presented at the SKA Science meeting next April and to plan new projects and collaborations. We want also to reserve some time to discuss the new managment model for the SWG and have inputs and advice from the community.

The meeting is intended to be a small, informal workshop, with lots of time for discussion. We can accommodate a maximum of 50 participants.
