<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The NASA Heliophysics Division and its director, Dr. Nicky Fox, recognize the impact the pandemic has had on mentorship and networking opportunities in this community. In light of these challenges and due to the positive response from the
first set of roundtables, we will be hosting another set of round table discussions with early and mid- career scientists. These gatherings will allow discussions of current NASA HPD plans to help mitigate impacts stemming from or exacerbated by COVID impacts
and receive feedback on the additional needs and concerns of this segment of our community. We invite early and mid- career individuals in the space science and heliophysics community to participate in these round table discussions and/or provide additional
concerns.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To participate and/or provide feedback, we ask that early and mid- career community members self-nominate by completing this webform (https://forms.gle/BMGH6878TZzjLTZu6) by September 22, 2021. There is a short fuse on this request as we
are hoping to host the round tables in late September/early October.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The roundtables will be divided into two categories: early and mid-career. Individuals will be grouped based on time until/since dissertation:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Individuals considered ‘early career’ are those who are two years prior dissertation up to seven years post dissertation. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Individuals considered ‘mid-career’ are those who are between seven- and 20-years post dissertation. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition, because of the short fuse, we encourage you to share this information with colleagues inside and outside your department who might know of early or mid career researchers who are interested in participating.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
