Events and Lab Group
Collabinar Series
We developed the CCS Collabinar as a way to collaborate with
others on exciting challenges and opportunities in community and
citizen science. This occasional, informal series provides a
space for people to both present their work and engage with
others. Our guests will give brief presentations, but the focus
is on working through challenges, design opportunities, mutual
learning, and exploring potential collaboration. See our upcoming
events here.
Ballard Lab Group
The Ballard Lab Group meets weekly to discuss citizen science,
science education, and research surrounding these topics. Each
week the discussion is centered around a new presenter who is
sharing their work and looking for constructive feedback or
advice. For more information on the Ballard Lab Group, please
contact us.
