Workshop: Wildfire and the Biosphere Innovation Lab

NEON staff are participating in a virtual workshop hosted by Knowinnovation and supported by the National Science Foundation to generate creative strategies and new research collaborations aimed at improving understanding of different types of fires across temporal and spatial scales, predicting feedbacks between wildfire and living systems, and improving the representation of biological processes in models.

The 5-day virtual Innovation Lab will take place May 17-19, May 21, and May 26, 2021. Applications were solicited from PI-level researchers — biologists (molecular to global scale), engineers, Earth scientists, physical scientists, social scientists, and computer scientists — in early 2021.
