Lightning Talks Redux: In case you missed the lightning talks at the OOIFB Town Hall on Friday, 25 February, this is another chance to hear presenters give quick and lively talks about their research and how they are using OOI data to answer scientific questions.

Friday 4 March 2022

OOI Data in the Classroom: Janice McDonnell and Sage Lichtenwalner, Rutgers Center for Ocean Observing Leadership, presented on the OOI Data Lab Manual created by Ocean Data Labs. Cheryl Greengrove, University of Washington, shared innovative ways she is using OOI data to inspire undergraduate students. Elizabeth (Lisa) Rom, National Science Foundation, addressed funding opportunities for OOI education and research initiatives, and Dax Soule, City University of New York, shared how Project EDDIE can be integrated into the classroom.
