Welcome to 2026 data rescuers! We missed you. We are back in full swing after a refreshing break. 2026 has undoubtedly been more lion than lamb, but we are ready and raring.

We have a few updates for this month:

  • Office hours
    • We will hold some office hours after work hours (eastern time) this year. The first one is Thursday, January 15, at 7:00 PM Eastern. Register to attend
    • The following office hour will be on January 28 at 4:30 PM. Register to attend.
  • Google Cal
    • Don’t forget that we have a public DRP Google Cal. You can check out our office hours and track the places where we are presenting, in case we are in a city near you!
  • DRP Ask Me Anything!
    • We are kicking off 2026 with an AMA on January 30, 6-8pm Eastern! Please submit your questions on our form or on Bluesky!
  • DRP Steering Committee Retreat
    • Our DRP Steering Committee will convene in Philadelphia (Go Birds 🦅) at the end of January for an inaugural retreat. We will meet as a group for the first time and use our weekend to discuss future goals for DRP. Expect pictures, plans, and general data rescue mayhem.
