The 2023 Career Development Award winners at the 54th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference.
The Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) is pleased to announce the recipients of this year’s Career Development Award. This award is granted to graduate students who have submitted a first-author abstract for presentation, either in-person or virtually, at the 55th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (LPSC).
