[CRYOLIST] Cryosphere Career Development Mentor Panel and Pub Meet-up at AGU

AGU Cryosphere Career Development Mentor Panel and Pub Meet-up

Moscone South Mezzanine room 270-274, Thursday 12 December 1800h-1900h

Join us for a panel discussion by experts in polar science and the cryosphere!

The discussion will address the exciting career opportunities and challenges faced by scientists who study these frozen realms. The panel members are at various stages of their careers both within and outside of university settings.  Dr. Jennifer Kay (National Center for Atmospheric Research), Dr. Gwenn Flowers (Simon Fraser University), Lynn Yarmey (National Snow and Ice Data Center), and Dr. Von Walden (Washington State University) will provide their insight and experiences. The floor will be open for a moderated conversation on any aspect of careers in polar science that interests the audience. This event is held in partnership between the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) and the Cryosphere Focus Group of the American Geophysical Union.

After the panel, we will be continuing the evening of discussion and networking at the nearby pub John Collins (138 Minna Street) from 1930h-2100h. Join us there for pizza and drinks even if you can't make the panel. We welcome the attendance of those at all career stages!
