DESCRIPTION:Rome\, 8-12 June 2020.\n\nThe website for this event has been 
 migrated.\n\nPlease refer to \n\nhttp://www.lssteurope4.eu/\n\nfor all in
 formations.\n\n \n\nRationale\n\nThe conference follows the very successf
 ul LSST@EUROPE1 (Cambridge)\, 2 (Belgrade) and 3 (Lyon) workshops organize
 d in 2013\, 2016 and 2018 to foster the European participation to the LSST
  projects\, as well as the analogous LSST@ASIA organized in 2019 for the A
 sian\, Australian and African communities. \n\n \n\nThe LSST project is m
 oving forward in the construction phase\, and activities in the LSST Scien
 ce Collaborations (Solar System\; Stars\, the Milky Way and Local Volume\;
  Transients and Variable\nStars\; Galaxies\; AGN\; Strong Lensing\; Dark E
 nergy and Informatics and Statistics) are vibrant and involve a significan
 t European participation.\n\n \n\nThe recent adoption of an “in-kind”
  contribution to regulate the access of International participants to the 
 project clearly represents a major paradigm shift for the participation of
  the European astronomical community\, with the existing agreements that n
 eed to be re-negotiated by mid-2021. The LSST@EUROPE4 conference\, being l
 ocated right in the middle of this path\, provides the community with a pe
 rfect opportunity to discuss proposals and plans.\n\n \n\nIn this framewo
 rk\, the main objectives of LSST@EUROPE4 are to:\n\n\n	provide an update o
 f the status of the LSST Project\;\n	foster the participation of European 
 scientists to the activities of the Science Collaborations\;\n	discuss the
  opportunities and proposals for European participantsto help shape the 
 “in-kind” contributions for the development of the LSST project\;\n	di
 scuss potential common initiatives at the European level to support the pa
 rticipation of European scientists to LSST\;\n\n\n\n	provide an update on 
 the planned release of LSST data products of different levels\;\n	discuss 
 LSST science drivers: current perspectives and future developments\;\n	exp
 lore synergies with other facilities\, with a special emphasis on European
  ones.\n\n\n\nMany organisational details are still being sorted out. More
  complete information will be available from September 2019. Mark the date
