3. PANEL MODERATOR: Edward Thomas

Some of the leading outreach practioners discuss strategies for attracting and retaining high-quality personnel (HQP), developing skills in and outside of physics, and evaluating the effectiveness of outreach programming.

1. PANEL MODERATOR: Ken Clark

Senior research leaders discuss strategies for the Canadian APP community for the next decade. Topics include ensuring quality science, balancing depth and breadth, determining specific focus areas, participating in international experiments, and coordinating efforts among SNOLAB, McDonald Institute, and TRIUMF.

2. PRESENTATION and Q&A: Tony Noble

McDonald Institute Scientific Director will update the community on a developing proposal to continue funding a large network of astroparticle physicists. He will review the most recent multi-institutional funding request led by the Institute and follow-on discussions for a new proposal to expand on the accomplishments supported by CFREF 2016-present.
