APECS-Canada 2015-16 Annual Report
HI All,
I hope you had a great summer!
Field work in far away Arctic/Antarctic locations, working in the lab,
analyzing data, writing thesis chapters and manuscripts, vacationing, or
maybe even making money!
Each year all APECS National Committees prepare a report on their
activities. This year like others, we have been involved in lots of great
projects and activities.
The APECS Board hopes the annual report will inspire you to get involved
APECS-Canada this coming year. There will be many opportunities for
personal and career development, and for you to support and contribute to
APECS' objectives
In the near future I will be sending out a call for new Board members. The
new Board will begin its work in early October 2016.
Think about becoming a Board member now and be ready to submit your
application.
Cheers,
Vicki
