PODS VIII had 25 attendees. Currently (2015), 20 of them hold jobs in academia and 5 in government agencies.
“It was excellent. I was very impressed by the level of organization and the commitment of all the participants.”
“Wonderful! A great program, excellent talks, and a great way to meet a diverse and motivated group.”
“Great! It was very helpful to get to know my peers and representatives from the different agencies.”
“OUTSTANDING! Having both PODS and DISCO together was great!”
“I found the meeting really useful. It helped me to meet all the other students who are at the same stage than me and who work on similar subjects. It is generally hard to meet our peers in conferences, as usually PhD students are more interested to meet senior oceanographers in their respective subject.”
“Excellent! It was great to interact with my fellow young oceanographers, most of whom I had not yet met, to see their dissertation research, and hear about their future directions. This has reshaped and improved some of the anticipated directions of my future research. I have also spurred some collaborations as a result.”
“PODS was a terrific experience. It is REALLY unfortunate that not all PO graduates can attend because it is a great opportunity to meet a cohort of peers and funding agency representatives. The structure of the meeting is relaxed, fun, full of very interesting and engaging science talks (25 min for each is perfect!), and will hopefully start many collaborations.”
“Terrific. If feel it was quite a privilege to be part of it.”
