For all of you attending the Davos Atmosphere and Cryosphere Assembly DACA-13 in Davos, Switzerland, July 8-12, 2013!!!
APECS in cooperation with the International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) will be organizing a 1-day science and career development workshop before the start of the Davos Atmosphere and Cryosphere Assembly DACA-13, in Davos Switzerland July 7, 2013. We will also be collaborating with the Climate Change and Cryosphere Project (CliC) to introduce opportunities with leadership roles for young researchers and early career scientists. The workshop aims to introduce early career researchers to both cryospheric and alpine sciences, as well as provide a session for career development which will help students to gain skills necessary for work and collaboration in the international and interdisciplinary area of polar research. The agenda will include: science presentations with experts in cryosphere or alpine research. Additionally we will have an interactive session with experienced mentors focusing on topics such as communicating science to several different types of groups (i.e. media, policy makers, general public...etc.).
We will have a social event in the evening for workshop participants and IACS organizers with a number of social activities to help you network with other participants and mentors!
Registration is free and meals will be provided but space is limited. For more information about the workshop please go to: http://www.apecs.is/apecs-meetings-a-events/daca-13-apecs-workshop
