About this event
The Decadal Survey on Biological and Physical Sciences Research in Space will develop a comprehensive strategy for the next decade of research in space, identify compelling science challenges, and guide funding priorities for federal agencies. Input and participation from the research community, particularly from early-career professionals, is critical for a successful survey.
Please join the National Academies for a two-part webinar series designed for early-career researchers to learn how you can get involved in the decadal survey process on September 2 and 14 from 2-4pm ET. Discussions will include how decadal surveys make an impact and how to write and submit effective white papers.
Participants will be able to ask questions and listen to insights from previous decadal contributors. While these webinars are intended for early-career professionals, anyone with an interest in learning more about the decadal survey process is welcome to attend.
Learn more about the dates, times, and topics for each of the two webinars below.
