Happy New Year APECS Members,
2010 will see one of the major International Polar Research conferences in history. The IPY Oslo Science Conference will be held from 8-12 June 2010 in Oslo, Norway. You have already seen several announcements on the listserve about this conference, and you can expect to see a few more in the coming weeks. There will be loads of great events for young researchers such as a Professional Development Workshop, a Speed-Networking Reception, an APECS Lounge, and an area for you to have interviews with potential employers. To apply for one of the 400 young researcher stipends and travel fellowships, submit an abstract through the conference system by 20 January and check the box to apply for the Oslo Stipend. To get a sneak peak of the application log into the APECS website and go to apecs.is/oslo2010.
For more information on the conference and to submit your abstract go to http://www.ipy-osc.no/. Looking forward to seeing all of you in Oslo in June!
