WHAT 
ICECReW is a professional development workshop for researchers. It will be held in-person at the University of Washington on May 7-8, 2023, prior to the start of the 2nd US Ice Core Open Science Meeting (being held May 8-10). Participants will meet with researchers to better understand the processes involved in envisioning, planning, and funding ice core projects. This year's workshop focuses on encouraging collaboration and generating proposal ideas.

WHO 
ICECReW is intended for researchers whose work contributes to the drilling, processing, or interpretation of ice core data. Participants must be affiliated with a U.S. institution to be eligible for travel support.

PURPOSE
The 2023 ICECReW workshop has two primary goals:

1. Develop project ideas and write a two-page proposal summary within small, collaborative groups
2. Identify opportunities related to ice core drilling projects past and future and network with researchers working on ice core related science.

FORMAT 
The workshop will be fully in-person. There are approximately 30 in-person spots for researchers. The workshop will engage participants in discussions, group work, and lectures. Researchers and NSF program officers will be invited to discuss the proposal generation and submission process and to share experiences dealing with proposal review, rejection, and resubmission. A subset of the sessions may be streamed online.
