FOSEP in San Diego for AAAS Conference

Kate and just got to San Diego for the annual conference of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). We’re looking forward to lots of interesting talks especially since this year’s theme is “Bridging Science and Society” which obviously fits in with FOSEP’s goals. Like previous years, this should be a good place to get ideas for topics and speakers that we can bring to Washington.

We’ll also be presenting a poster describing how we organize different types of events and how people might go about setting up a FOSEP-like group in other places. This will also be an opportunity for us to meet some of the people from FOSEP Colorado which has recently been formed with the help of one of our former leaders, Melanie Roberts.

We’ll be writing updates whenever we get a chance so you all can have an idea of what’s happening out here too.
