Students need to upload a brief motivation and description of their research interests, a rough travel budget, and a letter of support from their supervisor. We have a limited budget to support participants to attend the Workshop. For those whose attendance is approved, transport and accommodation should be covered and registration will be free (the level of support for each participant will be communicated by 15 September).Pulsar Science Search Collaboratory Very good intro material ... this is where I started learning about how pulsars are found with a telescope.
