[AstroPy] Python in Astronomy 2019

[Brigitta Sipocz]

Dear colleagues,

It is my pleasure to announce that applications are now open for Python in
Astronomy 2019, to be held 29 July - 2 August 2019 at the Space Telescope
Science Institute in Baltimore, MD, USA.

Though the application form will be open until 23:59 UTC on 31 January
2019, I encourage you to complete the form soon to make sure you don’t miss
the deadline.

The application form is at: https://goo.gl/forms/DkpmFPXJKsqMTsX32

More information about the conference, and links to past years, is
available at: http://openastronomy.org/pyastro/2019/

Finally, a brief excerpt from the description of the conference:

In addition to sharing information about state-of-the art Python Astronomy
packages, the workshop will focus on improving interoperability between
astronomical Python packages, mentoring current open-source contributors,
and developing educational materials for Python in Astronomy. The meeting
is therefore not only aimed at current developers, but also educators and
research group leaders who are interested in being involved in these
efforts.

Participant selection will be made with the goal of enhancing the Python in
Astronomy community and we encourage requests to attend from all career
levels. Effort will also be made to select participants who have
contributed meaningfully to the Python in Astronomy ecosystem via providing
educational materials, documentation, and/or code contributions. This
conference is neither intended to be an introduction to Python nor only for
expert-level Python developers.


Thanks,

Brigitta Sipőcz
On behalf of the SOC: Andrew Leonard (chair), Monica Bobra, Nicholas Earl,
Timothy Pickering, Brigitta Sipőcz, Abbie Stevens, and Erik Tollerud
