Considering attending one of the two national #geoscience meeings: the #GSA or the #AGU ? Graphed is the registration cost (member early-bird) for these meetings, compared to the US inflation rate. These meetings are now too costly to attend for many, especially since grants haven't matched the inflation rate.
This year due to location (GSA: Texas, AGU: Louisiana) there is the added cost of emergency evacuation insurance for those who can't get health care in these states.
Congratulations to Shaunna Morrison (Earth & Planets Laboratory, Carnegie Science), the recipient of the 2023 Mineralogical Society of America award. The award was presented at the #GSAConnects meeting.
She studies crystal chemical behavior and bonding systematics in minerals, is part of the #MarsCuriosity science team and is a pioneer in #MineralInformatics.

Gotta love the humble brags of geologists. π€£π
GSA Connects is the Geological Society of America's annual conference that includes technical sessions, professional education, and networking opportunities. Join us for Best Practices for Scientific Advocacy with CSLDF Staff Attorney Chris Marchesano. Geologists and other scientists are increasingly using their expertise towards scientific advocacy. Whether itβs on behalf of climate change, environmental justice, or
We'll be at #GSAConnects next week! Join us for Best Practices for Scientific Advocacy to learn how to apply expertise in advocacy efforts while minimizing the risk of negative repercussions. csldf.org/events
We are also offering free, confidential legal consultations - please email [email protected] to schedule.
