SUMMARY:Graduate Explorations in Mapping & Spatial Analysis (GEMS)
DESCRIPTION:The UMass Amherst Libraries are kicking off a new\, low-stakes 
 presentation series to spotlight graduate research. Every 1st Monday of the 
 month\, the Graduate Explorations in Mapping & Spatial Analysis (GEMS) 
 meets from 12pm-1pm in the Science & Engineering Library\, bringing 
 together students from across campus to share how they use GIS to shape 
 their research. \n\nEach session will feature two short (~30 minute)\, 
 dynamic presentations from grad students who are using GIS or spatial 
 analysis in their research. All fields of study are welcome\, from 
 environmental science to geography\, public health\, anthropology\, 
 engineering\, and more. Presenters are invited to share about methods\, 
 data sources\, analysis tools\, challenges they face\, or any other key 
 insights they’ve gotten through the research process. After the 
 presentation\, there will be time for Q&A\, open discussion\, and 
 networking.\n\nAre you a grad student using GIS in your graduate research? 
 Sign up to share your work with the GIS community on campus\, hone your 
 science communication skills\, and learn about new tools in a welcoming 
 environment!\n\nAre you interested in learning more about GIS applications 
 in research? Come join us to learn about cutting-edge research happening at 
 UMass and connect with other students and faculty!
