Gulf of Maine Research Institute, Portland, Maine
Sponsors: NSF Hercules Dome Ice Core Project
Conveners: Ursula Jongebloed, Julia Andreasen, Drake McCrimmon, Jacob Chalif, T.J. Fudge, and Bess Koffman
Application Deadline: February 9, 2024

What
ICECReW is a professional development workshop for early-career researchers. It will be held in-person for 1.5 days leading up to the 3rd US Ice Core Open Science Meeting (i.e., May 14-15), with the larger science conference May 15-17. The theme of this year’s workshop is exploring career opportunities within and outside of academia. The workshop will focus on developing and getting feedback on application materials such as CVs, research statements, teaching statements, and cover letters.
Who
ICECReW is intended for early-career researchers whose work contributes to polar sciences or paleoclimatology. We broadly define “early career” as someone within 3 years of PhD (before or after completion), although exceptions are certainly possible.
