Advanced topics in Cosmology

June 28 -  July 2, 2021

Location: The school will be virtual!

The main  goal of this school is to prepare the next generation of students, postdocs, and researchers to perform statistical analysis over cosmological observations, such as  present large scale surveys like DESI and  VERA RUBIN C. OBSERVATORY.

The first part of each day will be devoted to lectures and tutorials providing the basis of the advanced topics. The rest of the day will be dedicated to hands-on sessions for developing projects. A set of projects will be pre-defined.
