VT EPSCoR held a successful kick off to Year 4 with an exciting All Hands Meeting on June 4, 2019 at Saint Michael’s College in Colchester, VT. Over 80 participants attended including the new 2019 Undergraduate interns, graduate students, post-doctoral associates, and members from the VT EPSCoR External Advisory Committee.

Veronica Sosa-Gonzalez, PhD, Vermont EPSCoR's CWDD Coordinator, presented on the topic of diversity, equality, and inclusion at Universidad Ana G. Mendez 2nd Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Symposium in Carolina, Puerto Rico on May 17, 2019. Presenting remotely to approximately 400 students, Dr. Sosa-Gonzalez detailed Vermont EPSCoR's diversity efforts as a case study to foster inclusion and diversity. She also answered questions from the audience about how Vermont EPSCoR built and expanded its network and why the program considers training to be an important part of the diversity initiative.

BREE High School teacher Glenda Almodovar Morales presented her Vermont EPSCoR funded research at the National Science Foundation's Long-Term Ecological Research (NSF LTER) All Scientists Meeting in Pacific Grove, California in October 2018. The meeting, which occurs once every three years, provided Ms. Almodovar Morales with an opportunity to highlight research that her students worked on during the 2017-2018 academic year.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) Office of Integrative Activities (OIA) held a first ever meeting with all Research Infrastructure Improvement Awardees (RII) Tracks 1 -2 and 4 in Old Alexandria, Virginia on May 15 – 17, 2019. The meeting theme focused on “Convergence” and provided the opportunity for Principle Investigators (PIs) from all EPSCoR states and jurisdictions around the country to hear about funding trends at the NSF and other EPSCoR-like programs including the newly announced funding opportunities expected from the Department of Defense (DEPSCoR) program. The forum also provided a venue for PIs from different RII funding mechanisms to network and discover potential future collaborative areas of common interest – and convergence.

Several VT EPSCoR CWDD High School Student Interns from Puerto Rico traveled to Vermont to attend the Annual Research Symposium and share experiences with Vermont students at Burlington High School for a cultural exchange visit. Burlington High School is in the pilot year of the Burlington City & Lake (BCL) Semester.

f we want to build the capacity for scientific solutions that address the needs of all Vermonters then we must encourage the voices of under-represented groups to join the conversation. Having more scientifically trained people in Vermont, no matter what career pathway they take, is incredibly important for our state’s economic future. Even if we can’t see it, science is built into practically everything we do: from the decisions we make to the products we use. We strive to enrich our story by offering opportunities to those groups who have been traditionally underrepresented in these areas by connecting more students of different genders, races, ethnicities, and socio-economic positions, to career pathways in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM).
