--------------------
The Permafrost Young Researchers Network (PYRN) is a collaborative
program of the International Permafrost Association that connects
members of the research community. PYRN, which was formed one year ago,
invites participation from young scientists engaged in the study of
permafrost.

Hosted by Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, PYRN
provides information on conferences, fellowships, position
announcements, funding sources, recently completed theses and
dissertations, and other resources of interest to permafrost scientists.
The network currently consists of over 200 young researchers from 27
countries. Those involved or interested in permafrost research are
welcome to join.

Future activities of PYRN include coordinating programs for young
researchers during IPY and planning for the 9th International Conference
on Permafrost to be held in Fairbanks, Alaska, in summer 2008.
