This workshop is part of Love Data Week, an annual festival highlighting topics, opportunities and services relevant to data in research.

• Date and Time: 3:00–4:00PM, Wednesday, February 11, 2026
• Location: Presentation Room, Hohbach Hall, Green Library
• Instructors: Dr. Charles Baldner (Senior Research Scientist, Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory) and Katie Frey (Data Curator for Programmatic Access)

This workshop will focus on using SunPy, a community-developed, free, and open-source software package for solar physics to find and use data from Stanford’s Joint Science Operations Center, the hub for data from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite. Participants are expected to be comfortable with Python fundamentals, such as variable assignment, functions, loops, and lists. Everyone is welcome, regardless of scientific background.
