This conference aims to explore the application of data-driven tools to learn about galaxy formation physics. It endeavours to maximize the gain from astrostatistics, data science, and machine learning for the galaxy formation field as a whole, by emphasizing the translation of data-driven results to physical understanding. This conference will focus on a sharing of expertise in data exploration and analysis tools, and an open discussion of how these may teach us about the physics of galaxy formation and evolution.

The SCMA VIII conference is planned to be held in-person on the Penn State campus, June 12–16, 2023.

What could be a bigger source of "big data" than the entire Universe? Researchers in statistics and computer science are developing new methods to analyse the "big data" that companies and governments want to understand. To test out these methods they need big datasets that everyone can share --- and new astronomical telescopes just happen to be gearing up to generate observations of billions of stars and galaxies that fit the bill. Insights from statistics will help astrophysicists to get the most out of these observations. The Astrostatistics 2023 workshop will bring together statisticians and astrophysicists to learn the technical languages of the two fields and identify how to work together to combine the excitement of space with big data.

Frontiers in Machine Learning in Cosmology and Particle Physics 2023 is a workshop on the latest machine learning developments in the domains of cosmology and particle physics. It takes inspiration from the influential workshop series "Hammers & Nails", organised every other year by the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel.
