This hands-on virtual workshop aims to allow the amateur astronomy community to engage with professional multi-messenger research communities and to learn about tools they can use to contribute to astrophysics research on multimessenger & transient events through citizen science. The workshop will consist of talks, demonstrations and hands-on tutorials from both professional and amateur astronomers to inform the amateur astronomy community on best practices, get them accustomed to what the research community needs in terms of data, and explore the tools available to capture/store/utilise that data.
Registration opens on 17th March 2025 and remains open until 6th June 2025. If you would like to contribute a talk, demonstration, or hands-on tutorial, then please submit an abstract by 17th April 2025. The finalised programme will be published closer to the event. There is no registration fee for this meeting.
