Graduate Instrumentation and Detector School (GRIDS)

Description

The GRaduate Instrumentation and Detector School (GRIDS) offers a diversified learning experience, combining lectures from world leading experts with hands-on experience with typical detector and instrumentation technology. Now in its sixth edition, GRIDS is a summer school for graduate students and new post-docs in nuclear, particle, and astroparticle physics to get hands-on training with the detectors used in modern experiments. It is aimed primarily for those students and post-docs with limited experience with experimental hardware. Participants develop a basic understanding of the interactions of particle with matter that are relevant to radiation detection and of the physical mechanisms for collecting energy deposited by radiation. Participants also develop laboratory skills to operate commonly-used equipment for radiation detection in a safe and effective manner. 

This event is hosted by TRIUMF (https://www.triumf.ca/), organized in conjunction with the Arthur B. McDonald Institute (https://mcdonaldinstitute.ca/).
