Overview
The Advancing Geochronology Science, Spaces, and Systems (AGeS 3 or AGeS-cubed) initiative is a 5-year NSF-funded project to increase access to geochronology data and expertise, to
support and grow the geochronology community, and to promote inclusive and collaborative science. This will be accomplished through a trio of micro-funding programs that will make ~150 strategic micro-awards of $8-$15k each across three subprograms over 5 years: AGeS-Grad, AGeS-DiG, and AGeS-TRaCE.
The annual virtual AGeS community symposium is intended to strengthen the geochronology community and its networks and will provide opportunities for senior scientists, early career scientists, and graduate students to engage and interact. The 2024 symposium consists of two sessions with invited talks, AGeS updates, and short AGeS project presentations, as well as two breakout sessions to enable discussion and feedback on Community Needs and interaction between AGeS-Grad awardees and future program applicants.
The symposium will include opportunities for questions and discussion about the new AGeS-TRaCE (Training and Community Engagement) microaward program, which provides awards of up to $10,000 (no overhead) for projects aimed at addressing needs in training an community engagement within the broad field of geochronology.
