DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Karri Koljonen\n\nThis event will bring together the
  Nordic and Baltic (sub-)mm communities to foster scientific and technical
  synergies around the future AtLAST facility\, and to strengthen connectio
 ns across the broader Nordic 'astro family'.\nIn person attendance is enco
 uraged (no registration fee) for a better experience and collaboration opp
 ortunities\, but since physical space is limited\, we are offering a hybr
 id event.\nKey dates\n\n1st October. Abstract submission opening.\n1st Nov
 ember. Deadline for abstract submission \n15th November. Full program ava
 ilable.\n1st December. Deadline for registration\n14th-15th December. Nord
 ic AtLAST Nights\n\nAbout AtLAST\nThe Atacama Large Aperture Submillimete
 r Telescope (AtLAST\; http://www.atlast-telescope.org) will be the most ad
 vanced 50-m-class single-dish telescope dedicated to exploring the (sub-)m
 m sky\, powered by renewable energy\, and enabling transformational scienc
 e across multiple areas of astronomy.\nWith its exceptional sensitivity an
 d unprecedented field of view (~2°)\, AtLAST will probe the dust and gas
  properties of large populations of high-redshift galaxies\, and study the
  circumgalactic and interstellar media in nearby galaxies — and in our o
 wn — thanks to its superb sensitivity to faint extended emission. AtLAST
  will also provide new insights into the Solar chromosphere\, the chemical
  complexity of our Solar System and the Milky Way\, and will revolutionize
  studies of the transient (sub-)mm sky through the combination of large-fo
 rmat cameras\, high sensitivity\, and excellent spatial resolution.\nThe A
 tLAST study has been funded by two EU projects\, with the current (second)
  project running through 2028. The consortium includes many international 
 partners and it is explicitly aiming to expand towards a larger partnershi
 p\, including countries that are not yet formally part of the project. The
  overall coordination of AtLAST is based in University of Oslo\, Norway\, 
 making Nordic engagement a natural and timely connection for the project. 
 While AtLAST does not yet include a Finnish institute in the collaboration
 \, hosting this meeting in Finland is intended to catalyze new scientific
  and technical links and to engage Nordic and Baltic researchers and engin
 eers interested in contributing to AtLAST. Through these Nordic–Baltic A
 tLAST Days\, we aim to present the project and its current developments\, 
 foster new collaborations\, and broaden the community engaged in AtLAST ac
 ross the Nordic and Baltic regions.\nFunding\nThis project has received fu
 nding from the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation pro
 gramme under grant agreement No. 101188037 (AtLAST2). Views and opinions e
 xpressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily re
