ESIP UPDATE: 01.22.2019

Good Morning, ESIP – 

The 2019 ESIP Winter Meeting was productive, we are grateful to everyone who contributed sessions, talks & posters AND we missed the contributions from our Federal partners. 

We are doing a few things to ensure that the ESIP Meeting content is available beyond the meeting: 

  • We have single Key Take-Aways doc compiled for all sessions 
  • All meeting content, including recordings of plenary talks and breakout sessions, links to posters and presentations, and key takeaways from breakout sessions, will be made available at https://2019esipwintermeeting.sched.com/ on or before February 1st. 
  • If you have not yet uploaded your poster or presentation to the ESIP Figshare Portal, please do so ASAP using this guidance.
  • On February 7th, 12 ET, ESIP Staff and several guest speakers will host a webinar to recap meeting events and takeaways.

Next week we will be introducing 2019 ESIP Leadership.

Looking forward, 
Erin 
Erin Robinson
Executive Director, ESIP

  • Learn how to communicate effectively about your gateway,
  • Identify who cares about your gateway and potential new user groups,

ESIP Staff, along with several ESIP Lab teams, were able to take part in a previous SGCI Bootcamp and found the experience to be extremely valuable. Learn more and apply now here.
