Ian attended the 7th Annual International Institute of Environmental Studies (IIES) Science and Policy Workshop in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. He presented the PowerGeolab’s research on Mineral Weathering for CO2 Removal. A great experience, many interesting people, and very welcoming hosts in Vietnam. Thank you to the organizers. Following the workshop, the IIES Graduate Student Forum was held on Phú Quốc Island. We went snorkelling to explore the beautiful coral reefs. Thanks to all the energetic graduate students that make being a professor that much more fun!
