The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a space-based infrared telescope that covers wavelengths from the near-infrared to the mid-infrared. The public archive data of JWST are extremely valuable and have already led to many novel scientific achievements.

This data analysis workshop has been organized with the aim of promoting research using JWST archival data, and is primarily intended for graduate students and early-career researchers.

The first workshop will be held in June and will include an overview of JWST, as well as data analysis focused on MIRI/MRS and coronagraphic observations.

The second workshop will cover data analysis of other instruments onboard JWST.
