now I'm planning to attend -- who else is in?<br>

Megean, can you work on the requested project description?<br>

12-13, 2018 in Alexandria VA, just a few miles from the new
NSF. This is an important meeting for our community and I
hope that you can make it. At the very least, one person
from each project should be there. Your project should pay
for the expenses for two people, if at all possible, and any
additional people from your project can request
reimbursement through the registration page.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

style="color:black">3. The original date also mentioned a
<b>second meeting</b> to be held on Mar 13-14th, also in
Alexandria. It is focused on the new CISE effort to expand
engagement in BPC activities beyond our current group of
dedicated PIs (see the Dear Colleague Letter NSF 17-110).
That meeting is a very small workshop and we only need a few
of the existing BPC PIs in attendance. I will be contacting
the PIs and CoPIs who are the best fit over the next day or
two. But don’t worry if you don’t hear from me — I very much
value the work that you are doing and we will have many more
venues for everyone to get involved in the new CISE effort. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
