[Roundtable] Reminder! NCEAS Roundtable: Stacy Rebich Hespanha & Mary Hunsicker

[Mary Hunsicker]

Dear All,

Please join us for an NCEAS Roundtable this *Friday*, *February 28th* at
12:15 pm.

Drs. Stacy Rebich Hespanha & Mary Hunsicker
NCEAS Postdoctoral Fellows

will lead a discussion on:

"Using virtual collaboration to replace or supplement carbon-intensive
research travel: barriers, best practices, and opportunities for innovation"

We will be extending an earlier discussion of the environmental ethics of
research travel to take a closer look at virtual meetings and
collaboration. To prepare for this discussion, please take a look at the
readings posted on the following blog:
http://roundtable.nceas.ucsb.edu/2014/02/21/virtual-collaboration/. Come to
prepared to discuss your perceptions of the obstacles faced by would-be
virtual collaborators and your ideas for how some of these barriers could
be overcome. We have allotted time for each person to share his/her idea(s)
on innovative ways to overcome barriers (2 minutes per idea). We encourage
you to prepare 1 powerpoint slide for each idea and send them to Mary (
hunsicker at nceas.ucsb.edu) prior to the Roundtable.

Everyone is welcome to attend.
