This workshop will provide a forum for members of the U.S. astronomy community to share ideas about priorities for the many scientific opportunities that are being opened for exploration at meter and centimeter radio wavelengths, and to discuss how best to exploit those opportunities. Planning for the future of U.S. astronomy at meter and centimeter wavelengths is at a crossroads. Where the US radio community should focus its efforts toward a next generation instrument is uncertain. A major new facility in this wavelength range, the Square Kilometer Array, is being actively planned internationally, and the US role in this project, among other possible initiatives, will be discussed at this workshop.

本次研讨会将为美国天文学界的成员提供一个论坛，分享关于米和厘米无线电波长探索的许多科学机会的优先事项的想法，并讨论如何最好地利用这些机会。 美国天文学在米和厘米波长领域的未来规划正处于十字路口。 美国无线电界应该将精力集中在下一代仪器上的何处尚不确定。 国际上正在积极规划该波长范围内的一个重要新设施，即平方公里阵列，本次研讨会将讨论美国在该项目中的作用以及其他可能的举措。
