UK Polar Network committee 2017/18

Dear all,

The UKPN Committee consists of volunteers based across the UK. Members organise workshop and networking events in addition to keeping members up to date with funding and job opportunities via the mailing list and website.
Committee members have the opportunity to represent the UKPN at national and international meetings, which has led to some having had tea with Princess Anne.

Traditionally the majority of the committee are PhD students, but Post-docs, Masters Students, and non-academics are always very welcome.
