Dear Colleague,

We are delighted to circulate a pre-announcement for the first LSST@Asia
- Exploring the Deep, Wide, Fast Universe conference to be held in
Sydney, Australia, May 20-23rd 2019.

Please save the date. If you would like to receive further
announcements, please pre-register on the conference website:

https://lsst-asia.org/

LSST@Asia is the first conference in what we intend to be a series,
following on from the series of very successful LSST@Europe conferences
held in 2013, 2016 and 2018. These meetings encouraged close interaction
between LSST personnel and European scientists interested in LSST.

LSST@Asia will bring together scientists in Asia, Australia and South
Africa with an interest in the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope and
provide them with the opportunity to interact with each other as well as
with leaders of the LSST Science Collaborations (Solar System; Stars,
the Milky Way and Local Volume; Transients and Variable Stars; Galaxies;
AGN; Strong Lensing; Dark Energy and Informatics) and hear updates on
LSST construction and data processing progress.

The main objectives of the 2019 meeting are to:

     -Provide an update on the status of the LSST Project
     -Strengthen the network of scientists in Asia involved in various
aspects of LSST
     -Promote increased engagement of scientists with the LSST Science
Collaborations
     -Explore synergies with other and future astronomical facilities

Child care will be provided to maximise participation by those with
carer responsibilities. There will also be some funding support
available to encourage attendance by early-career researchers (<5 years
post PHD) and PhD students.
