While the FISST training was originally conceived for students and early career researchers, the training was open to all of our meeting attendees, including students, postdocs, and faculty, with the goal being to reach as many folks as possible to boost violence prevention. This training was presented by Jerika Loren Heinze, a Cultural Anthropologist and the Founder of the Fieldwork Initiative, a grassroots organization for students and researchers facing trauma, unsafe conditions, or sexual harassment and assault during research fieldwork.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"pdf\" href=\"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020C-DEBI-agenda-and-participants-final.pdf\">Download the final agenda (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Session 1:<\/strong> Welcome \u2022 Coffee Klatch I \u2022 Plenary Session I \u2022 Lightning Talk Session I \u2022 Discussion and Q&amp;A<\/p>\n<p><strong>Session 2:<\/strong> Welcome \u2022 Coffee Klatch II \u2022 Plenary Session II \u2022 Lightning Talk Session II \u2022 Discussion and Q&amp;A<\/p>\n<p><strong>Session 3:<\/strong> Fieldwork Initiative FISST Training<br \/>\n<a name=\"2019\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>C-DEBI Annual Meeting, November 13-14, 2019<\/h2>\n<p><em>Sanctuary Beach Resort, Marina, California, USA<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"g-cols wpb_row  type_default valign_top vc_inner figure\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-grid type_masonry layout_gallery_default no_gap\" id=\"us_grid_3\" data-grid-filter=\"false\"><div class=\"w-grid-list\" ><article class=\"w-grid-item post-14190 attachment type-attachment status-inherit hentry\" data-id=\"14190\">\n\t<div class=\"w-grid-item-h\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"w-grid-item-anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy.jpeg\" ref=\"magnificPopupGrid\" title aria-label=\"2019 C-DEBI Annual Meeting\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"w-post-elm post_image usg_post_image_1 stretched\"><img width=\"600\" height=\"318\" src=\"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-600x318.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-us_600_0 size-us_600_0\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-600x318.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-300x159.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-1024x542.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-200x106.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-768x407.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-1200x635.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019-annual-meeting-b-copy-100x53.jpeg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/div>\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div><div class=\"w-grid-preloader\"><div class=\"g-preloader type_1\">\n\t<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\t<div class=\"w-grid-json hidden\" onclick='return {&quot;action&quot;:&quot;us_ajax_grid&quot;,&quot;ajax_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\\\/wp-admin\\\/admin-ajax.php&quot;,&quot;infinite_scroll&quot;:0,&quot;max_num_pages&quot;:1,&quot;pagination&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;permalink_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\\\/wp-json\\\/wp\\\/v2\\\/pages\\\/10806&quot;,&quot;template_vars&quot;:{&quot;columns&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;exclude_items&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;img_size&quot;:&quot;us_600_0&quot;,&quot;ignore_items_size&quot;:false,&quot;items_layout&quot;:&quot;gallery_default&quot;,&quot;items_offset&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;overriding_link&quot;:&quot;popup_post_image&quot;,&quot;post_id&quot;:16107,&quot;query_args&quot;:{&quot;post_type&quot;:[&quot;attachment&quot;],&quot;post__in&quot;:[&quot;14190&quot;],&quot;post_status&quot;:&quot;inherit&quot;,&quot;post_mime_type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;orderby&quot;:{&quot;post__in&quot;:&quot;ASC&quot;},&quot;posts_per_page&quot;:999},&quot;type&quot;:&quot;masonry&quot;,&quot;us_grid_ajax_index&quot;:1,&quot;us_grid_filter_params&quot;:null,&quot;us_grid_index&quot;:3,&quot;_us_grid_post_type&quot;:&quot;attachment&quot;}}'><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\" ><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>We continued to emphasize integration and collaboration at this Annual Meeting through discussions of future plans as well as reporting on active C-DEBI research projects.

To this end, we discussed progress made on selected projects, learned about frontiers in deep biosphere research (including some not involving subseafloor realms), and explored future options for new Major Programs (where C-DEBI may focus attention and resources over the next several years). The meeting included plenary presentations aimed at a broad audience, poster sessions featuring results of individual studies, breakout groups to examine progress and needs of C-DEBI research themes, mentoring activities for junior scientists and graduate students, and time to socialize and discuss recent STC activities and goals for the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Day 1:<\/strong> C-DEBI, Juan de Fuca, South Pacific Gyre and North Pond Overview \u2022 Invited Plenary (Joe Vallino) \u2022 Invited Plenary (Rick Colwell) \u2022 Research Themes \u2022 Invited Plenary (John Priscu) \u2022 Research Theme Breakout 1 \u2022 Research Theme Breakout 2\u2022 Proposed Major Programs Poster Session<\/p>\n<p><strong>Day 2:<\/strong> Invited Plenary (Matthew Schrenk) \u2022 Proposed Major Programs Overview \u2022 Proposed Major Programs Breakout 1 \u2022 Education and Outreach \u2022 Invited Plenary (Edward Peltzer) \u2022 Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Poster Session \u2022 Invited Plenary (Wolfgang Bach) \u2022 Proposed Major Programs Breakout 2 \u2022 Major Programs Wrap Up &amp; The Next Two Years<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"textregular also\" href=\"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/docs\/2012AHM_Agenda.pdf\">Download the final agenda (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>C-DEBI Annual Meeting, May 16-17, 2011<\/h2>\n<p><em>University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, USA<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The focus of C-DEBI\u2019s first Annual Meeting (formerly titled the &#8220;All Hands Meeting&#8221;) was to discuss, report and plan past, present and future research and activities of our Center to build our knowledge of life in the subseafloor biosphere.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Day 1:<\/strong> Welcome and Overview \u2022 Expedition Focus Review \u2022 Research Direction Breakouts \u2022 Breakout Reports \u2022 Report on Surveys of Activities \u2022 Funded Research Projects Review\/Introduction \u2022 Education and Outreach Review \u2022 Funded Education Projects \u2022 Knowledge and Technology Transfer \u2022 Education and Outreach and Technology Transfer Breakouts \u2022 BBQ!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Day 2:<\/strong> GEM Undergraduate Course \u2022 Research, E&amp;O Breakouts Focusing on What&#8217;s Next? \u2022 Strategic Implementation Planning \u2022 Final Breakouts for Impromptu Topics \u2022 New Drilling Projects Breakout Followup \u2022 EAB Breakout \u2022 ExCom Breakout \u2022 Final Charges<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"textregular also\" href=\"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/docs\/2011C-DEBIallhandsagenda.pdf\">Download the final agenda (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":6484,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/10806"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10806"}],"version-history":[{"count":24,"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/10806\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16930,"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/10806\/revisions\/16930"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6484"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.darkenergybiosphere.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
