4:30 pm - 6:30 pmMST
Open to Public
The reception will feature the research results of previous years' IRP winners, listed below. Light refreshments and beverages will be served.
The IRP is an internal CIRES competition designed to stimulate a creative research environment within CIRES and to encourage synergy between disciplines and research colleagues. The program encourages novel, unconventional, or fundamental research that might otherwise be difficult to fund. CIRES-wide competitions are conducted each year to foster an innovative research environment where risk-taking is allowed and even encouraged.
