Climate & Coffee
2024-10-16 14:00 - 15:00 | Lighty 405, 1815 Wilson Rd, Pullman , WA, United States
Title: Climate & Coffee (details here)
When/Where: Wednesday, October 16 at 2pm in Lighty 405 or by Zoom (Meeting ID: 952 7167 9499, Passcode: [REDACTED]
Description: Build your network and casually explore opportunities to engage in research addressing issues related to climate change!
The Center for Environmental Research, Education, and Outreach (CEREO) is hosting our inaugural “Climate & Coffee” session to bring together individuals interested in further developing or initiating research ideas related to climate change issues. We’ll start with opportunities to network over coffee and snacks, followed by time to brainstorm research ideas. You are welcome to bring ideas in any stage of development, from a spark of interest but no prior experience, to a resubmission of an existing idea.
We will provide “food for thought” in the form of actual food and an overview of three current RFPs that might be of interest to the CEREO community. New RFPs from diverse funding sources will be highlighted in each subsequent session. We welcome participants to come with other RFPs they are interested in too!
Please RSVP here!
About us/questions: CEREO supports and advances interdisciplinary environmental research across the WSU system. For more information about CEREO visit: https://cereo.wsu.edu/. Please contact Sasha McLarty (sasha.richey@wsu.edu) with questions about Climate & Coffee.
