Hi everyone,

The EDGE Institute has recently formalized an advisory committee who are
named below. The Committee has decided that we would like to include a
graduate student member, so *I am inviting applications from current
graduate students within CNAS*.

The purpose and duties of the advisory committee are to advise the Director
on strategic directions, research priorities, and partnerships; review
annual plans and budgets, participate in Director reviews, and serve as
liaison between EDGE and other university units.

The advisory committee will hold formal meetings at least twice per
academic year (but more likely once per quarter). Terms will be for three
years (though 3 years is not a minimum requirement for graduate students
who will finish their degree within the next 3 years).

If you are interested in joining the EDGE advisory committee, please send
me an email including the following information:

Name)
Department)
Degree program)
Advisor name)
Expected Graduation Year)
Connection between your research and EDGE themes (200 words or less)

*EDGE Advisory Committee*:
Sandra Kirtland Turner, EDGE Director
Bob Allen
Kurt Anderson
Andrew Gray
Francesca Hopkins
Marko Spasojevic

Best,
Sandy
