LSST Discovery Alliance (LSST-DA) is a major, international alliance of primarily academic and research institutions committed to transformative science with LSST.
We invite applications from organizations engaged in activities that closely relate to Rubin LSST’s mission and that share LSST-DA’s values. This includes academic, scientific, educational, data-oriented, and/or philanthropic institutions. Our goal is to facilitate a broad participation of the international science community in LSST-DA and, by extension, the LSST scientific community.
