[Cuga] Announcing the 2026 DRD1 Gaseous Detector School – July 8–17 at FRIB- A message from Kondo Gnanvo

[Lorelei Carlson]

Dear Colleagues,



We are pleased to announce the 2026 DRD1 Gaseous Detector School, which will take place July 8–17, 2026, at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) on the campus of Michigan State University (MSU) in East Lansing, Michigan, USA.

This ten-days school is designed for Ph.D. students and early-career scientists interested in gaseous detector technologies or planning to enter the field. The program combines morning lectures by world-leading experts with afternoon hands-on sessions, offering a deep dive into modern gaseous detector systems such as:

  *   Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs)
  *   (Multi-)Resistive Plate Chambers ((M)RPCs)
  *   Wire-based detectors

Topics will include detector physics, signal readout, simulation, design, manufacturing, and real-world applications. Students will also have an opportunity to present their own research in a dedicated poster session.

Registration is free for students. Attendees are responsible for their travel, accommodation, and personal expenses. Due to space limitations, admission will be competitive.

The morning lecture sessions will be open to the broader community, with options to attend in person or virtually (registration required).

For more details and to apply, please visit the official website: https://indico.cern.ch/event/1572535/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__indico.cern.ch_event_1572535_&d=DwMF-g&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=8RkWGK8Ehr23aQ4XZaeJkKhdeUjRK7rjlS9Ivaen0wM&m=dv0HegZnPRneDLfrEkpRGDoXy2C38T0Tkgf6NJFKOv2mg_-BFVTz_1Hu24GFtKXs&s=SFJle341s3dtSmqcZbBPhCOXRiooNAfSOkE38P8qOoI&e=>



We kindly ask you to share this announcement with colleagues, collaborators, and students who may be interested.



We look forward to welcoming you to East Lansing in July 2026!



Best regards,
