The meeting will take place from the 9th to 11th of January 2019 at the Institute of Theoretical Physics (IFT) in Madrid, Spain. It is hosted by the IFT Cosmology group.

The meeting is aimed at forming a collaborative team of LISA members wishing to contribute to the stochastic background data analysis for LISA.  The meeting will primarily focus on the Radler data release (i.e. the last data produced by the LDC). Discussions about novel ideas suitable for future data challenges are also planned. All emerging ideas are supposed to be shared with the team.

The registration is now open and will remain open until 20 December 2018. Also, please note that the workshop is restricted to LISA members only.

Non-LISA members interested in the workshop should apply for membership, but due to the time delays in the application process, they should apply as soon as possible and definitely some months before the registration deadline. For instructions on the LISA application see here https://signup.lisamission.org/

The meeting will be followed by the 6th Cosmology WG workshop; see here (registration to the two events required separate applications).

The meeting is supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions (MSCA), the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM) and by the Comunidad de Madrid under the Atracción de Talento Investigador programme.
