<p><font size="2">The 2022 ISR Summer School will take place between
<b>July 18-22, 2022</b>. The school is tentatively in-person and
will be held in Boston, MA. Note that depending on the evolving
situation with the pandemic, a virtual school is also a
possibility. While the details of the school are being worked

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><b>About the ISR Summer School:</b><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The ISR school funded by the US
National Science Foundation provides students with hands-on
experience in designing and running experiments at incoherent
scatter radar (ISR) facilities. During this summer school,
students will have the opportunity to run experiments with and
use data from one or more ISR observatories, such as Millstone
Hill ISR, Poker Flat (PFISR), and Jicamarca. The school will
provide both lectures and hands-on experience in experiment
design and analysis. The lectures will include an introduction
to the theory of incoherent scatter, radar operations, ISR
analysis techniques, and community databases. The hands-on
exercises will involve working closely with ISR facility staff
in the topic areas of proposal design, experiment execution, and
data analysis. All students will have the opportunity to work
one-on-one with experienced scientists from multiple
institutions.</span> </p>
