LOFAR Family Meeting 2023

Submitter: Irene Bonati
Description: The 2023 edition of the LOFAR Family Meeting took place on 12-16 June in Olsztyn (Poland). Hosted by the University of Warmia and Mazury, the event gathered ~150 LOFAR community members from all over the globe working on a variety of topics of LOFAR's broad science case.

Attendees were treated to a diverse range of talks and posters showcasing recent findings and advancements in low-frequency radio astronomy. In addition to the stimulating scientific program, the conference featured an informative LOFAR2.0 & users’ session and provided a platform for engaging discussions on the long-term future of LOFAR.

The beautiful city of Olsztyn provided a great location for this meeting. Participants had the chance to immerse themselves in Polish culture by witnessing an amazing song and dance performance of the local ensemble 'Kortowo', explore the city’s historical landmarks such as the Copernicus Castle (where they attended a very informative lecture about Copernicus), and enjoy the warm hospitality of the locals.

The LOFAR Family Meeting 2024 will take place in the Netherlands (exact location TBD). Stay tuned for more announcements on this!
