Association of Polar Early Career Scientists

 

The UKPN and US APECS hosted their joint-event with an online workshop tailored around the peer review process. The workshop was hosted online on May 7th.

This interactive workshop was aimed at Early Career Researchers (ECR) where speakers provided their own personal insights and perspectives whilst ECRs were given the opportunity to ask questions.

 



The session saw a Plenary Talk by Terrestrial Ecologist Prof. Pete Convey, chief editor for ‘Antarctic Science’, ‘Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution’, board member of ‘Ecology’ and associate editor for ‘Polar Science’, ‘Polish Polar Research’, ‘Ukrainian Antarctic Journal’.

We then followed by a Panel discussion on peer review by the following early, mid and late career scientists:
Oceanographer Dr. Sam Hartharn-Evans, Post-doctoral researcher at Northumbria University and UK Polar Network vice-president.
NASA Geologist Dr. Lauren Andrews, Associate Editor at ‘Journal of Geophysical Research’.
Glaciologist Prof. Bob Hawley, Program Officer at NSF and Past President of AGU Cryosphere Sciences.
