Dust off those pre-COVID social skills and get your networking on! Join our early CERF 2021 networking workshop on 12 October at 7:00 PM ET and bring a fellow CERF scientist to interview.

Share Your Stories

We are inviting you to participate and submit an interview that fits the theme! We hope that you will use StoryCorps to conduct an interview, for example, between you and your mentor/mentee. We are also interested in capturing the memories of long-serving CERF members. Get together virtually with a person who has influenced your career, CERF, or CERF’s disciplines. Record your interview with them!

Register for the workshop to learn more about interviewing, sharing your stories, and using StoryCorps to preserve CERF's history!

About CERF & StoryCorps

CERF prides itself on being an open, friendly, and egalitarian organization, and these attributes go back to its beginnings. We have tried to capture the history of CERF through the personal stories of its members. We hope that these stories help to show these attributes and provide examples for the future human side of this professional organization.

The stories are being told through StoryCorps, a non-profit organization that provides a platform, in addition to mechanisms and instructions to conduct and archive interviews. Archiving is done through the Library of Congress, allowing a long-term record of interviews. 

CERF has a community as well! It contains a number of interviews in the previous communities and more.
