Meetings with polar science and policy experts

Small group meetings with polar science and policy experts by the IGERT seminar series provided trainees with the rare opportunity to discuss issues in depth with some of the most knowledgeable experts in the field. Speakers included Lonnie Thompson, Wallace Broecker, Stephanie Pfirman, Sheila Watt-Cloutier, F. S. Chapin III, Paul Mayewski, Robert Bindschadler, and Klaus Toepfer. Not only were these meetings valuable in terms of academic learning, they also provided professional development and skills building in science communication, public speaking, professionalism, and group facilitation.
