The event is designed to support and empower the next generation of astrophysics leaders and Principal Investigators. The workshop aims to provide early career scientists with insights into the diverse range of work within the Cosmic Origins Program, explain the tools and opportunities available to them, and address any questions they may have.\n\nThis year, organizers have planned more early-career talks and panels for participants to share their thoughts and ideas. The workshop schedule is from 1:00-4:30pm ET on each day of the three-day event. To register and submit abstracts for the workshop, attendees can follow the link provided on the program's website.\n\nKey topics during the workshop will include Understanding The Little Red Dots, Cosmic Pathfinders, Leadership Q/A, \"From ideas to the Launch Pad: What’s in your skills tree?\", and AI/ML Tools for Astrophysics Research. Participants are encouraged to subscribe to both email lists to receive updates on the event. To stay informed, attendees should send an email to the Cosmic Pathfinders Program.",
