CanSISE: Events and Meetings

The CanSISE network will hold a number of network wide and regional events over the course of its lifespan. These meetings will serve as opportunities for network members to meet each other in person, review progress to date, present current research, and organize future collaborative efforts. 

 

Three network wide workshops will be held during project years one, three and five, while smaller Regional meetings will be scheduled several times each year. 

CanSISE East Meeting - June, 2016

On June 8th 2016 sixteen members of CanSISE gathered at the University of Toronto for a meeting that included four formal presentations, and a round table discussion and short presentations for new research results. Our group was also joined by Marjorie Shepherd from Environment Canada to discuss CanSISE deliverable, the Network Enhancement Initiative (NEI) proposal to NSERC, and other network updates.
