<div dir="ltr" class="">Good morning fellow astronomers,</div>
<div dir="ltr" class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" class="">Please forward this email to all interested parties within your institute. It is important that we gather as much feedback as possible so I can accurately represent our Australian community in my annual report to ESO and at the Users
Committee meeting in April.</div>
<div dir="ltr" class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" class="">The UC represents ESO’s astronomical community forming a direct link between the users and ESO. On an annual basis we ask users for feedback through our User Committee Poll : <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/Hc6mCnx1jni7qqZ30F9ljIG?domain=eso.org" target="_blank" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" class="">https://www.eso.org/extra/surveys/index.php/745213?lang=en</a><br class="">
<br class="">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" class="">This year there is a special focus on VLT-Interferometry. The poll is open until <b class="">Friday</b> <b class="">March 19th</b> 2021.<br class="">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" class="">[ If you experience a timeout problem when filling in the poll, please empty the cache of your browser. This is a well-known cookie problem from LimeSurvey. ]</div>

It is an anonymous survey, and the answers will be only seen by the UC members who will use them as input for discussions during the annual meeting of the UC and ESO scheduled in April.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
During the UC meeting updates from ESO and feedback from the user community are exchanged and openly discussed. The meeting webpage [<a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/Mr7vCoV1kpfrLLVPNczNQuF?domain=eso.org" target="_blank" class="">http://www.eso.org/public/about-eso/committees/uc/uc-45th.html</a>]
includes a record of the last meeting with recommendations that will be discussed. <br class="">
<br class="">
The User Committee acts as an advisory body to the ESO Director General on matters related to the performance, scientific access, operation and user interfaces to the La Silla Paranal Observatory and ALMA. The UC welcomes opinions and suggestions from the community
either through direct contact with the UC members [<a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/RlY2Cp81lrtnNN0OrTYhga2?domain=eso.org" target="_blank" class="">http://www.eso.org/public/about-eso/committees/uc/uc2020.html</a>] or through the responses via the
survey.</div>
