This includes reviewing papers for publication, recording podcast episodes, and hosting our annual graduate research conference.
We are looking for additional Pardee graduate students to support The Atlas’s mission. All team members are responsible for ensuring the quality of material submitted to The Pardee Atlas, promoting Atlas publications, and maintaining the integrity of the organization.
