  • Introduce the two new Antarctic Science solicitations, NSF 23-508 and NSF 23-509,
  • Provide you with an overview of the Antarctic Research Vessel (ARV), courtesy of Tim McGovern from OPP’s Antarctic Infrastructure and Logistics Section,
  • And engage with you in a question-and-answer session.

All USAP participants – including current awardees, pending proposers, and future proposers – are welcome to attend.
