APECS is celebrating its 10th Anniversary! Since its inception during the International Polar Year 2007-2008, APECS has been widely recognized as one of the legacies of the IPY continuing to provide networking, training and career development opportunities for early career researchers as well as promoting education and outreach as integral components of polar research.
This year, as part of the 10th anniversary celebrations of our flourishing organization, we invited members to design an APECS logo featuring this milestone, with the winning logo to be used on all official items authored during 2017. Out of the many submissions received, we proudly present the winner logo by Stephanie Bates, a research technician at the University of Bristol (United Kingdom) specialising in isotope biogeochemistry:
For her winning contribution, Stephanie received a travel award to a conference of her choice. Congratulations Stephanie! And many thanks to all those who participated.
