We plan to run monthly seminars aimed at early-career researchers to showcase their leading work in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics, planetary science, and any space-related topics. We also plan to run community workshops and hackathons. More on this below.

We aim to:

• Foster collaborative approaches and exchange of ideas within The Turing’s growing astronomy community. Run interactive discussion workshops, hackathons and conferences.
• Provide a unified forum to engage with other interest groups on large astronomical data projects.
• Provide a platform for the wider UK and international AstroML community to engage with the Turing community.
• Organise unified responses to grant calls and sessions at leading conferences.
• Promote early-career researchers (through talks/colloquia) and promote ML in astronomy as a career path in the UK

We are planning to coordinate and share seminars with the Simulation Based Science Interest Group. Please consider signing up to them as well.
