  • Presentations and Zoom Recordings from the 75th Anniversary Celebration of the Naval Arctic Research Laboratory (NARL) and the Enhancing Arctic Science and Engineering (EASE) Workshop, Utqiaġvik, Alaska, 1-5 August 2022
Title: Presentations and Zoom Recordings from the 75th Anniversary Celebration of the Naval Arctic Research Laboratory (NARL) and the Enhancing Arctic Science and Engineering (EASE) Workshop, Utqiaġvik, Alaska, 1-5 August 2022
In early August 2022, a multidisciplinary, intergenerational, and cross-cultural group of participants converged on Utqiaġvik, Alaska to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Naval Arctic Research Laboratory (NARL) and to take part in a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded workshop focused on Enhancing Arctic Science and Engineering (EASE). The foundation of the EASE workshop was grounded in a legacy of promoting sustainable Arctic science in Utqiaġvik, as a model for the circumpolar north, being guided by the important role of the Inupiat in furthering scientific understanding of climatic and social-ecological change in the rapidly changing Arctic. The five-day event focused on summarizing science and engineering in Utqiaġvik and the greater North Slope region over the last 75 years, an assessment of the current state of the science and engineering being conducted, and a prospectus on science and engineering in the Arctic over the next 25 years. The workshop included oral and poster presentations and featured keynote speakers that focused on key achievements and past research endeavors to provide the framework for envisioning the trajectory of Arctic science, engineering, and education in the future. Specific themes of the EASE workshop included marine and coastal research, terrestrial and freshwater research, atmospheric research, social science research, co-production of knowledge, convergent research, and education and outreach opportunities. The gathering included more than 140 participants from academia, federal agencies, nonprofit organizations, industry, community members, and local-to-regional governments and corporations. Participant expertise included natural and social scientists from the range of disciplines reflected in the workshop’s themes, as well as engineers, planners, students, and local and Indigenous leaders and knowledge holders. U.S. government representatives came from the National Science Foundation, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Arctic Research Commission, Department of Energy’s Arctic Energy Office and Office of Science, Sandia National Lab, Pacific Northwest National Lab, Lawrence Livermore National Lab, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Ted Stevens Center for Arctic Security Studies, and the U.S. Navy. Senator Murkowski’s and Senator Sullivan’s offices each contributed introductory remarks that provided context for the importance of this event in the State of Alaska’s history. The data archived here includes PDF documents for each of the presentations at the event as well as the accompanying zoom recordings of each presentation where documented. There are also zoom recordings of panel summaries and interviews with several past Arctic researchers.

    null (Ed.)
    The National Science Foundation (NSF) held a virtual Symposium on PRedicting Emergence of Virulent Entities by Novel Technologies (PREVENT), on February 22 – 23, 2021 as part of its series on Predictive Intelligence for Pandemic Prevention (PIPP). The workshop brought together more than 60 leading experts, representing NSF research directorates for Biological Sciences (BIO), Computer Information Science and Engineering (CISE), Engineering (ENG), Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE), and the Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE), to discuss how the global behavior of an infectious entity can emerge from the interactions that begin occurring between components at the molecular level and expand to physiological, environmental, and population scales. The workshop was divided into four sessions, each focusing on one of four different scales: 1) end-toend (or multi-scale) 2) molecular, 3) physiological and environmental, and 4) population and epidemiological. Particular focus was given to identifying challenges and opportunities in each of these domains. The workshop aimed to: • Identify interdisciplinary advances in science, technology, and human behavior to enable prediction and prevention of future pandemics • Begin to build the necessary convergence to be optimally prepared to prevent future pandemics • Establish convergent data commons and cyberinfrastructure for PIPP This workshop report summarizes the plenary presentations, panel discussions, and breakout group sessions that took place at this event. The results presented here are drawn from the viewpoints expressed by the participants and do not necessarily reflect those of the broader pandemic research community.

    On August 4-5, 2022, the Thomas J. O’Keefe Institute for Sustainable Supply of Strategic Minerals at Missouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T) hosted the 2nd annual national workshop on ‘Resilient Supply of Critical Minerals’ funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). The workshop was convened via Zoom and attracted 346 registrants, including 171 registrants from academia (62 students), 88 registrants from government agencies, and 87 registrants from the private sector. The workshop was free to attend for everyone who registered. On day 1 of the workshop, 152 unique viewers logged into the sessions. Day 2 had 111 unique viewers. Four topical sessions were covered: A. The Critical Mineral Potential of the USA: Evaluation of existing, and exploration for new resources (Day 1). Keynote speaker: Jeffrey Mauk, United States Geological Survey. B. Mineral Processing and Recycling: Maximizing critical mineral recovery from existing production streams (Day 1). Keynote speaker: Karin Olson Hoal, Cornell University. C. Critical Mineral Policies: Toward effective and responsible governance (Day 2). Keynote speaker: Michelle Michot Foss, Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy. D. Resource Sustainability: Ethical and environmentally sustainable supply of critical minerals (Day 2). Keynote speaker: Debra Struhsacker, Professional Geologist, Environmental Permitting & Government Relations Consultant. Each topical session was composed of one keynote lecture and three invited presentations. The sessions concluded with a Q/A discussion with all presenters. Recordings of selected presentations are available from the workshop website: https://criticalminerals.mst.edu/2022-presentation-videos/. The third annual workshop on ‘Resilient Supply of Critical ‘Minerals’ will be held in the summer of 2023 on the Missouri S&T campus, Rolla, Missouri, USA. The dates will be announced in January 2023.
