The In-House Community 15 Post-Doctoral Fellows 5 Sabbatical Faculty 3 Triangle Faculty (on teaching leaves)

Synthesis Working Groups (NCEAS-Style) 12 people, meet several times Assumption … the data is out there! Meetings to Catalyze and Achieve Synthesis

“Catalysis Meetings” 30 people around a central theme Lead to Grand Scale Research Collaborations Meetings to Catalyze and Achieve Synthesis

What is Synthesis?
