Invitation -- Delta Lead Scientist Candidate Seminars and Meet and Greets
Greetings IEP Community Members,
The Delta Stewardship Council's Delta Lead Scientist Interview Panel would like for us to share their announcement regarding their upcoming seminars and meet and greet opportunities with the candidates for the Lead Scientist.
The Delta Stewardship Council in partnership with the United States Geological Survey and in with consultation from the Delta Independent Science Board (ISB) is recruiting the next Lead Scientist for the Delta Science Program whose term will begin in the summer 2024. Two candidates are currently under consideration for the appointment: Dr. Gary Lamberti (University of Notre Dame) and Dr. Lisamarie Windham-Myers (United States Geological Survey). As part of the selection process, the Delta Lead Scientist Interview Panel (an advisory committee of the Delta ISB) is hosting seminars, and meet and greets with each of the candidates. This will provide an opportunity for the community at large to learn about each of the candidate’s research and experience and how it applies to the position during the seminar, and to ask general questions related to their interest in the position during the meet and greet.
We would like to invite you to attend these seminars and meet and greet opportunities.
- The first seminar will occur on February 22, 2024, at 10:00 AM, at the California Natural Resources Agency where Dr. Lamberti will present a seminar titled “The Past, Present, and Future of Water Science (see agenda for details). If you can’t make it in-person, you can also participate via Zoom.(Zoom registration)
- The second seminar will occur on March 11, 2024, at 10:00 AM, at the California Natural Resources Agency where Dr. Windam-Myers will present a seminar titled “eMerging perspectives of the Land Ocean Aquatic Continuum (LOAC).” (Agenda will be distributed closer to meeting date). If you can't make it in-person, you can participate via Zoom. (Zoom registration)
The seminars/meet and greets will occur on the second floor, and there is no need to check in with security if you use the stairs. The seminar will be webcast and recorded. Additional information about these seminars and meet and greet opportunities, including webcast links and recordings, can be found on the Delta lead scientist webpage.
