Gordon Research Conference on Science and Technology PolicyCSTPR’s Roger A. Pielke, Jr. co-chaired this year’s Gordon Conference on Science and Technology Policy August 8-13, 2010 in Waterville Valley Resort, New Hampshire. The conference focused on a wide range of research at the intersection of science, technology, policy and society, in particular on further developing partnerships between North American and European researchers. Invited speakers represented a variety of scientific disciplines in the policy sciences, social and natural sciences as well as the humanities. The Conference brought together a collection of investigators who are at the forefront of their field, and provided opportunities for junior scientists and graduate students to present their work in poster format and exchange ideas with leaders in the field. The collegial atmosphere of this Conference, with programmed discussion sessions as well as opportunities for informal gatherings in the afternoons and evenings, provided an avenue for scholars from different disciplines to brainstorm and promote cross-disciplinary collaborations in the various research areas represented. Visit the conference website for more information. |

ENVS Colloquium Series Fall 2010The theme for the ENVS Fall 2010 Colloquium Series is 'adaptation and the environment'. In the interdisciplinary spirit of environmental studies, one main speaker gives a more extensive talk. Then, two commentators from varied and complementary disciplines offer insight on some other dimension of the issue at hand. The aim has been to have representation from faculty and grad students on the panels. All sessions are scheduled for the CIRES auditorium from 4-6pm (with refreshments preceding the talks, 4-430pm). Click here for directions. Contact ami@cires.colorado.edu if you wish to be added to our mailing list to receive notices of future talks. For an updated schedule see the ENVS Colloquium webpage. The series is being co-sponsored by the Environmental Studies Program at the University of Colorado and the Center for Science and Technology Policy Research. |
