First Annual Advisory Council Meeting

On March 4, the Iowa NSF ESPCoR Advisory Council convened at Iowa State University for its inaugural face-to-face meeting with our group. During the session, Council members were briefed on our progress and some challenges by Laura Jarboe, our Project Director. Surya Mallapragada, Associate Vice President for Research, extended a warm welcome and provided updates on the external advisory board and the ongoing efforts of the VPR Office at Iowa State University.

The six advisory council members—Jeff DeGrange,  Robert DiCosimo, Erik Hagberg, Mary Jane Hagenson, S. Keith Hargrove, and Brian McFarland—provided valuable feedback and recommendations on ways to enhance, expand, and sustain our efforts.
