<h2 class="major">Summer School</h2>
<p>AstroHackWeek is, in part, a summer school. The mornings will offer lectures and exercises covering essential skills for working effectively with large astronomical datasets. Past years have seen topics such as machine learning, Bayesian inference, frequentist statistics, databases, numerical Python, and visualization. Check out <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7BUtrXxvkaKn6QLWKdmzCw">last year's recorded lectures</a>.</p>

<h2 class="major">Unconference & Hackathon</h2>
<p> AstroHackWeek is also an unconference and hackathon. The afternoon every day is entirely unstructured, and offers opportunities for collaborative research, breakout sessions on special topics, and application of the concepts covered during the morning sessions. Come with a project in mind, join someone else's or apply a new skill to an old problem.</p>

<!-- more detailed descriptions of organizers
<p><span class="image left"><img src="images/barbary.jpg" alt></span><strong>Kyle Barbary</strong> is a Cosmology Data Science Fellow at UC-Berkeley and the Berkeley Institute for Data Science. He studies cosmology using Type Ia supernovae as part of the Nearby Supernova Factory. He is interested in robust statistical inference from (photometric-only) supernova datasets and the development of sustainable astronomical software in Python and Julia.</p>
<p><span class="image left"><img src="images/marshall.jpg" alt></span><strong>Phil Marshall</strong> is a staff scientist at the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology, at SLAC, Stanford University. His main research interest is observational cosmology using gravitational lensing: weighing galaxies, and measuring the expansion rate of the Universe. He is involved in a number of surveys to find new lenses, using both ground-based and space telescopes - including designing the strong lensing science analysis for LSST.</p>
<p><span class="image left"><img src="images/hogg.jpg" alt></span><strong>David W. Hogg</strong> is a professor of Physics and Astronomy at New York University. His main research interests are in observational cosmology, especially approaches that use galaxies (including our own Milky Way) to infer the physical properties of the Universe. He also works on exoplanet measurement and discovery. In both areas, he is interested in developing the engineering systems that make these projects possible.</p>
<p><span class="image left"><img src="images/huppenkothen.jpg" alt></span><strong>Daniela Huppenkothen</strong> is a Moore-Sloan Postdoctoral Fellow at the NYU Center for Data Science. She is primarily interested in time series methods for astronomy; so far, her work has focussed on developing methods for characterising variability in fast transient events (in particular magnetar bursts) in data from X-ray space telescopes. and on using empirical models to make inferences about the underlying physics of the system.</p>
<p><span class="image left"><img src="images/vanderplas.jpg" alt></span><strong>Jake VanderPlas</strong> is the Director of Research in the Physical Sciences at the University of Washington’s eScience Institute, where his research is primarily in the area of novel statistical approaches to datasets from astronomy and other fields. He is co-author of the graduate-level text, Statistics, Data Mining, and Machine Learning in Astronomy, and is a maintainer and/or frequent contributor to many scientific open source Python projects.</p>

<h2 class="major">Travel and lodging</h2>
<p>The workshop will be held at the <a href="http://bids.berkeley.edu">Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS)</a> on the UC Berkeley campus.</p>
<h3>Getting here</h3>
<p>You can fly into either San Francisco International Airport (SFO) or the Oakland International Airport (OAK). SFO is the larger of the two airports and is about an hour away from Berkeley on public transit (BART). OAK is 40 minutes away on BART. The workshop venue (BIDS) is about a 10 minute walk from the Downtown Berkeley BART station (<a href="http://bids.berkeley.edu/about/directions-and-travel">directions from BART station to BIDS</a>).</p>
<h3>Lodging</h3>
<p>Berkeley has many hotels near campus. AirBnB is also active in Berkeley. Here are a few hotel options, roughly in order of cost:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://ymca-cba.org/locations/downtown-berkeley-hotel">Downtown Berkeley YMCA hotel</a> ($65 / night)</li>
<li><a href="http://french-hotel-berkeley.com">SenS Hotel & Bistro (formerly the French Hotel)</a> ($115 - $155 / night)</li>
<li><a href="http://qualityinnberkeley.com">Quality Inn University</a> ($145 / night)</li>
<li><a href="http://hoteldurantberkeley.com">Hotel Durant</a> ($200 / night)</li>
<li><a href="http://hotelshattuckplaza.com">Hotel Shattuck Plaza</a> ($260 / night)</li>
</ul>
