PaCD Working Group Meeting
Wednesday, September 13, 12:00 pm ET
At our first meeting, there were some questions about a more defined thematic focus of the group. As we do not (yet?) want to set that too narrowly, we will start the discussion at the Sept 13 meeting with us (Johanna and Andrew) each giving short presentations about how our research relates to polarization. We hope this will stimulate more discussion about the purpose of the group. Our thinking, at the moment, is that after this meeting where we continue a fairly general discussion, someone from the group will present something about their research at each meeting.
