From pccgrads at u.washington.edu Tue Apr 1 10:05:25 2025 From: pccgrads at u.washington.edu (Stevie Walker via pccgrads) Date: Tue Apr 1 10:56:02 2025 Subject: [pccgrads] Naomi Levine's Hedges Visiting Scholar Seminar Wed 4/16 at 2pm in OSB 425 Message-ID: Hello all, The chemical oceanography graduate students are pleased to invite you all for *Naomi Levine's Hedges Visiting Scholar Seminar* on *Wednesday, April 16th at 2pm* in *Ocean Sciences Building 425 *(1492 NE Boat St, Seattle, WA 98105). This seminar is open to the entire UW community. About the seminar and the Hedges Visiting Scholar Program: *Title:* Breaking open the microbial black-box to improve our understanding of biogeochemical cycling *Abstract:* Marine microbes are the engines that drive biogeochemical cycling in the oceans thus playing a critical role in the climate. Specifically, both the production and the consumption rates of organic carbon are set by the interaction between diverse microbial communities and the chemical and physical environments in which they reside. Modeling these dynamics requires reducing the complexity of microbial communities and linking directly with biogeochemical functions. Microbial metabolic functional guilds provide one approach for reducing microbial complexity and incorporating microbial biogeochemical functions into models. However, defining these guilds can be challenging especially for heterotrophic microbes. We have been using a range of cellular-scale models to both assist in defining metabolic functional guilds from annotated genomes and to help understand the mechanistic basis behind trait trade-offs. These models can relate directly to 'omic measurements for validation and hypothesis generation. They also provide a means for coarse-graining microbial dynamics for incorporation into larger-scale biogeochemical models. The use of pipelines that leverage multiple modeling approaches provides a path forward for bridging from the cellular to ecosystem scale and thus provide new insight into the role that microbial communities play in setting rates of carbon cycling. *About our scholar:* Naomi M. Levine is a Professor at the University of Southern California where she holds joint appointments in Marine and Environmental Biology, Quantitative and Computational Biology, and Earth Sciences. She received her BA in Geosciences from Princeton University and her PhD in Chemical Oceanography from the MIT-WHOI Joint Program. Naomi?s research focuses on understanding the interactions between climate and marine microbial ecosystem composition and function. The Levine Lab is developing innovative, interdisciplinary numerical models that allow them to understand how dynamics occurring at the scale of individual microbes impact large-scale ecosystem processes such as rates of global carbon cycling. Naomi is an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow, Simons Foundation Early Career Investigator, and NSF CAREER recipient. *About the Hedges Visiting Scholar Program:* John Hedges was one of the world?s leading marine organic geochemists and was a member of the Chemical Oceanography faculty at the University of Washington from 1976 to 2002. The Hedges Visiting Scholar fund was created in his memory to allow chemical oceanography graduate students to invite prominent scientists to the UW campus.

To: Good morning, The Northwest Climate Resilience Collaborative is excited to announce that we will be launching the Community-Engaged Fellowship program in *May 2025*. Please help spread the word to eligible students (master?s, doctoral, and post-doc) who might be interested in this opportunity. Fellowship applications will be open in May 2025 for a 10-week position from June to August 2025. Please find the details below or visit our webpage here and share with your students! Thank you! ? *NCRC Community-Engaged Fellowship Program: Summer 2025* The Northwest Climate Resilience Collaborative (NCRC) is launching the Community-Engaged Fellowship Program in Summer 2025 to connect University of Washington graduate students with community organizations outside of the university. The fellowship program is rooted in the belief that some of the most important climate resilience work is being driven by community organizations. The Community-Engaged Fellowship Program is designed to accelerate climate adaptation in the Northwest and beyond. It has two goals: 1. To provide grounded experiential learning that will broaden students? perspectives and prepare them to have effective, future collaboration and engagement with community-based and nonprofit organizations after graduation, and 2. Equip nonprofits and community-based organizations with relevant skills and support to advance their climate and environmental priorities. In summer 2025, the NCRC will pilot the fellowship by pairing *up to two fellows* with organizations. Fellowships will run from approximately June 23 through August 22. The start and end dates will vary. Fellows will: - Dedicate up to 20 hours per week to the fellowship - Apply their skills and knowledge to complete an identified scope of work - Meet with NCRC staff regularly to ensure positive engagement with the organization and promote community-engaged learning. - Receive a stipend to offset living expenses for the duration of the fellowship. *Early May, we will announce fellowship opportunities and provide instructions on how to apply. Check back to our webpage to apply!* The NCRC and participating community-based organizations will co-develop a project work plan that corresponds with one of three fellowship categories: Climate Storytelling and Communications, Technical Assistance, or Education. Details will vary depending on the interests and needs of our community partners. Co-production is an interdisciplinary method that seeks to incorporate collaborative approaches to projects between community groups and institutions and will be applied throughout this fellowship. Fellows will gain experience in co-producing outputs and deliverables with a community-based organization and the NCRC. *CLIMATE STORYTELLING AND COMMUNICATIONS FELLOWSHIP* Fellows will gain real-world experience in developing community-oriented communications and storytelling projects that advances the community partner?s mission and project priorities. Fellows may engage in a number of activities such as writing newsletters, planning and coordinating outreach events to storytelling through interviewing, storymapping, or other creative engagement methods. For example, the fellow may assist in developing a website while improving communication methods such as a monthly newsletter. *RESEARCH AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FELLOWSHIP* Fellows will gain experience in research and technical support for a community partner?s project. Areas of research expertise may range from social, natural, or physical sciences. Technical support may include but is not limited to research and project co-design, interviewing and analysis, data collection, literature review, data synthesis and analysis, or data translation. For example, the fellow may conduct a literature review on research on climate impacts relevant to the community and present findings to the community partner. *EDUCATION FELLOWSHIP* Fellows will gain experience in curriculum and facilitation support for a community partner?s educational program. Educational support may include curriculum design and development, curriculum facilitation, and evaluation to advance the community partner?s mission and project priorities. The Education fellowship emphasizes the value of incorporating multiple ways of knowing and sharing knowledge that goes beyond the traditional western approaches to education. For example, the fellow may create training material for a community partner to use that highlights climate impacts pertinent to their community in ways that are locally relevant and culturally responsive.
