First to business: As this is our Annual Branch Meeting we will be electing next years’ officers at the meeting.
We are excited about our featured speaker, 2021-2022 AAUW Fellowship recipient, Jasmeet Dhaliwal, a postdoctoral scholar in Earth and planetary sciences at UC Santa Cruz. She is a planetary scientist who studies the chemistry of the early solar system and how it has influenced planet formation and evolution. Jasmeet is actively involved in science outreach education for K-12 students and efforts to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in the Earth and planetary sciences. She eventually hopes to become a professor and develop interdisciplinary research with her colleagues to advance social
justice issues in the field.
