November 1-2, 2010 with the participation of Mississippi and Alabama EPSCoR, will host a tri-state conference in New Orleans to address key scientific research questions raised by the Deepwater Horizon disaster and its ongoing effects. Funded by NSF and the Board of Regents Support Fund, the Conference is organized around four interdisciplinary research strands:

  • Deepwater Drilling and its Consequences
  • Coastal and Ocean Environments: Damage, Recovery & Revitalization
  • Human Communities: Disaster Management, Sustainability and Health
  • Economics and Policy: Consequences of and Recovery from the Spill

The focus of the event will be to explore both ongoing and potential collaborative research opportunities in and across these topics. The Conference will include presenters and panelists – from both the university and private sectors – representing regional, national and international expertise in their respective research areas as well as in multidisciplinary research partnerships. In addition, program officers from a variety of federal programs will be on hand to discuss funding priorities and opportunities related to the oil spill and its aftermath.
