Welcome

To promote progress in the practice of 21 cm experiments, we are organizing a community workshop on 21 cm cosmology, which is scheduled to be held between July 21st to 26th, 2024, in Hangzhou Zhejiang, P.R.China. The workshop focuses on sharing recent progress and challenges from all the major 21 cm experiments efforts, both EoR and post-EoR, to help this field reach its full potential.

We will discuss important common challenges: calibration, sources of locally correlated signals, foreground mitigation, cross-correlations, systematics from digital signal processing, validation, and software tools.
