<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Earlier this year, NASA, NSF, and NOAA announced the Heliophysics 2050 Workshop. This workshop will be an agency-enabled, community-driven event to help the community prepare
for the next Solar and Space Physics Decadal Survey. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">This workshop will focus on a strategic, multi-decadal science framework for solar and space physics. We anticipate that community members will leverage workshop results
to provide context for their individual white papers to the Decadal Survey process. In preparation for and as input to the Workshop, NASA will support community members in forming a Science Organizing Committee (SOC) to:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> 1. Organize community white papers into a strategic science web that identifies science dependencies and flow of science investigations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> 2. Organize Workshop sessions.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> 3. Serve as editors for the workshop’s proceedings document.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Workshop Philosophy: The workshop will examine current scientific understanding and what near-term investigations can enable and inform future investigations. From this
scientific progression, the Workshop will create a “Science Web” that maps current understanding to the next set of compelling science investigations which, in turn, lead to still later studies. These investigations will cover the range of work from basic
research to operational efforts and would be agnostic to their mode of execution (e.g. theory, observations, spaceflight missions). This will enable the next Decadal Survey to lay out a long-term science strategy: What does Heliophysics look like in 2050,
and what do we do in the next decade to help us get there?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Applications are welcome from any heliophysics community member. Applicants should be aware that a reasonable time commitment will be needed from summer 2020 through spring
2021. Ideally, the SOC will be a diverse group of researchers able to identify the intra- and inter-discipline connections of investigations that advance and expand the field of heliophysics.
