January 2024 ePIC Collaboration Meeting

US/Central
9700 S Cass Ave, Lemont, IL 60439, United States
Description

The 4th semi-annual meeting of the ePIC Collaboration is scheduled to take place from January 9th to 13th, 2024, at Argonne National Laboratory in the USA. The meeting will primarily be conducted in person, with broadcasts available over Zoom.

The meeting agenda will include plenary sessions that provide status reports on the collaboration and the EIC project, parallel 'workfest' sessions, and a guided tour of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) facility and Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) at Argonne. The meeting's overarching focus will revolve around planning for 2024, the Technical Design Report, and CD-2/3 preparations.

Registration is now CLOSED. The deadline for registration and site-access request was December 5th for foreign nationals and December 12th for US citizens.

To book accommodation at the Argonne Guest House, please follow the instructions provided at this link
