The Overall Goals for Graduate Students Attending the GLEON All Hands' Meeting are to:
- continue to improve and develop student involvement within GLEON;
- provide students with an opportunity to interact with an international assemblage of lake scientists and information technology specialists in an informal, highly interactive setting; and
- encourage students to conduct research using GLEON data or affiliated resources in collaboration with the GLEON community and sister networks.
General Requirement for ALL Student Participants at GLEON meetings
- Present a poster* at the Poster Session;
- Attend GSA-led workshop**, usually scheduled on the day before the main program begins. GSA workshops are organized by the GSA leadership team, prioritized for student and post-doc attendees, but open to other registered participants at mid-career or experienced scientists if space permits; and
- Conditional: participate in the NPP - Network Partnership Program as the New-to-GLEON Partner if this is your 1st or 2nd time attending a GLEON All Hands' Meeting.
* If you have any concerns or for any reason are not able to bring a poster to the All Hands’ Meeting, please contact the GSA:
gsa.gleon@gmail.com.
** There may be exceptions according to individual needs and conditions, such as personal travel scheduling conflict so you will miss the GSA-led workshops, or another concurrent workshop on the same day suits your research needs better. In the latter scenario, you are absolutely free to choose any of the pre-meeting workshops to attend.
