We are reaching out to start a series of open discussions towards building = community, offering information where available and support. Our goal is to= discuss how we can respond to the situation, support our emerging scientis= ts, and find ways ensure that our field survives the coming changes. If you are interested in joining an email group that will be set up to adve= rtise zoom meetings for the community, please enter your contact details he= re: [https://uwmadison.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eyZjjuYtb2Jv4Ym] We are currently planning on the following initial meetings over zoom: * May 14th 1pm Eastern time * May 28th 4pm Eastern time * June 11th 1pm Eastern time Zoom links will be sent out to those who provided contact details.
