The Fermi Summer School focuses on analyzing data from the Fermi mission through a combination of lectures and hands-on workshops. Participants collaborate directly with experts in instrumentation, data analysis, theory, and modeling to enhance and expand their research projects. The program covers a wide range of topics, spanning the gamma-ray spectrum, from Fermi's GBM to the highest energies detected by the LAT, and extending to very high energies observed by ground-based gamma-ray telescopes.
See the Fermi Summer School page for more information.The goal of these workshops is to update the community on opportunities to participate in Fermi science through the Guest Investigator Program (GI) in an interactive forum. The GI program supports a broad range of opportunities including a variety of joint-observation programs through partnership with various ground and space-based observatory partners.Year Cycle Date 2026 19 January 14, 2026 2:00 PM EST 2025 18 January 21, 2025 2:00 PM EST 2024 17 January 24, 2024 2:00 PM EST 2023 16 January 24, 2023 2:00 PM EST 2022 15 January 28, 2022 1:00 PM EST 2021 14 February 2, 2021 1:00 PM EST Fermi data analysis workshops focused on hands-on Fermi analysis tutorials similar to the Fermi Summer Schools.
