Colloquium: Jimi Green (SKA Observatory) "SKAO in Australia and the SKA-Low Science Operations Outlook"

I will provide a brief update on the SKA Observatory as a whole, the fundamental science drivers, and the expected design and scope for the SKA-Low telescope in Australia. I will then provide an update on the progress of the growing SKAO entity in Australia, including the Science and Engineering Operations Centres, and the roll out plan of the SKA-Low telescope. I'll outline the plan for the science operations team, the breakdown between commissioning, verification and operations, and highlight pathways for involvement (from students through science engagement to employment opportunities).
