The international Gemini Observatory, a Program of NSF's NOIRLab, invites its user community to gather in Seoul, Korea, for a celebration of our continuing mission to provide forefront access to the entire sky, and a preview of the exciting developments to
come. Hosted by the partnership's newest member, the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI), this 2022 Science Meeting will feature the latest scientific results from the Gemini community, updates on instrumentation, adaptive optics, and operations
developments, and a discussion of Gemini's strategic plans for the coming decade. The meeting will be held immediately before the IAU General Assembly in Korea in August. Come join us in Seoul!
