NW CASC Webinar: Updating Your CV to Contextualize Your Contributions in Societally Engaged Research To: climateupdate@u.washington.edu > [A group of people pulling a net Description automatically generated] Are you a researcher engaging with non-academic partners to develop science that meets real-world needs? If so, you may have noticed that the traditional format of scientific CVs, focused on comprehensive lists of publications and presentations, makes it challenging to convey the distinct skills, activities and products associated with your societally engaged research. So how do you develop a CV that accounts for these real-world contributions, yet still aligns with the traditional CV format expected in academia? Join the Northwest Climate Adaptation Science Center in an interactive workshop on December 12 from 10-11:30 a.m. PT to find out! This work session is designed to support you in incorporating narrative elements into your CV that help contextualize your skills and experiences and better communicate your work. We?ll draw from lessons learned in our previous webinar, Reworking Scientific CVs to Better Capture Societally Engaged Research and Move Towards Fairer Research Assessment. After setting the stage for why you might consider adding narrative elements into your CV, we?ll break into small groups and walk through prompts for how to incorporate narrative elements that highlight meaningful, contextual information about your contributions in societally engaged research. We?ll have a mix of quiet work time as well as time for discussion and questions.

My name is Alex Lowe, I am a PhD student in Biology studying paleobotany and paleoclimatology. I am co-chairing a session titled "Advances in the Miocene Climate Dynamics". I am looking for two judges for the outstanding student presenter award (OSPA) program. It consists of sitting through their talk or visiting their poster, and assessing their presentation via a rubric shared by the OSPA, which you will submit through their online portal. You also give constructive feedback to the student. Resume builder and a little giving back!?! If you are interested, are you able to judge one of the following (just one is fine!)? If so, let me know, and I can give you more details. 1. Oral presentation, Friday (12/15) 4:30-4:45. Title: Miocene (23-12 Ma) Northern Mediterranean continental paleotemperatures within a global climate framework (Digne-Valensole Basin, SE France). 2. Poster presentation, Friday (12/15) 8:30-12:30.
