Dear Colleagues,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This is a reminder that the abstract submission deadline for the GALAH Survey Science Meeting closes this Friday 21 May.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This conference will use a hybrid format. For our Australian and New Zealand colleagues, we will be meeting in-person on the campus of the University of New South Wales in Sydney from 22 to 24 June 2021. For our international colleagues, you will
be able to participate virtually. To allow people to speak at a time friendlier to their time zone, we will dedicate sessions at the start and end of each day for the Americas and Europe/Africa respectively. With permission, all talks will be recorded and
put on an unlisted YouTube channel for people who could not watch them in real time.</div>

<div class="">Dear colleagues,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We are pleased to announce the 2021 GALAH Survey Science Meeting, to be held from 22 to 24 June 2021. It will have a hybrid format with people both online, and meeting in-person in Sydney, Australia.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The GALAH Survey is an ongoing, ambitious stellar spectroscopic survey of the local Galactic volume, acquiring high-resolution optical spectra for over one million stars with the HERMES spectrograph at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. GALAH had
its Third Data Release in November 2020, which provided reduced spectra, stellar parameters, elemental abundances, and radial velocities for about 600000 stars. Subsequent to this release was the Third Early Data Release from the Gaia astrometric mission.
The combination of these two data releases has provided an unprecedented view of our Galaxy. This conference aims to bring together researchers to present the latest research taking place using the GALAH survey, Gaia, and other stellar surveys.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">The GALAH Survey and other stellar surveys facilitate a wide breadth of topics. Scientific themes we are interested in talks on include:</div>
<div class="">
<ul class="">
<li class="">Galactic chemical evolution</li><li class="">Galactic chemodynamics</li><li class="">Galactic migration</li><li class="">The accreted halo</li><li class="">Stellar streams</li></ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="">This conference will use a hybrid format. For our Australian and New Zealand colleagues, we will be meeting in-person on the campus of the University of New South Wales in Sydney from 22 to 24 June 2021. For our international colleagues, it will
highly unlikely that you will be able to travel to Australia, so you will be able to present and participate virtually. We will set aside time at the start and end of day for people to present via zoom at times friendly to your time zone. If the COVID-19 situation
changes in Sydney, we will move the conference to fully online.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The 2021 GALAH Science Meeting will be free to attend. Please register using this form
