I-GUIDE, the Institute for Geospatial Understanding through an Integrative Discovery Environment, will host its popular Summer School program on the UCAR campus in Boulder, Colorado, from August 7 – 11, 2023. Graduate students and early career scholars will team up to address complex convergence science problems, supported by the technical capabilities of cyberGIS and high-performance computing. Participants will experience multidisciplinary and collaborative interactions that are key to convergence science solutions. Cross-cutting themes this year include geoethics, geovisualization, and reproducible and open science. Our application areas will include the changing climate’s effects on water and food insecurities, biodiversity, sustainable development, as well as the use of social science data and methods in convergent approaches.

We are pleased to announce the following participants for the 2023 cohort, whose participation is funded with generous support from the National Science Foundation.
