Polar Expert Group
Background
One of the main activities of EU-PolarNet 2 is represented by the Research Prioritisation process (WP3), within which a Polar Expert Group (PEG) has been established. The PEG tool is fundamental for prioritising research themes and formulate initial research actions to be carried out in the future.
From this large PEG group, the EU-PolarNet 2 Executive Board nominated the Executive Polar Expert Group (ExPEG). The ExPEG is intensively involved in the research prioritisation task.
The chairs of the ExPEG are:
- Professor Pauline Snoeijs Leijonmalm – Stockholm University
- Dr. Giovanni Macelloni – Institute for applied physics of the CNR
