  • Seasonal Flowering Clock

    Seasonal Flowering Clock

    Brought to you by Nina Yasuda

    The eternal cycles of nature, while changing, never lose their creativity.

    Art is one way to harmonize and visualize the "sensibility to feel beauty" and "science reveals its truth.”
    The plants of this art garden are designed to bloom in sequence over the course of a year.
    They are intended to evoke our imagination about the cycles of nature and time, and to pass on the vegetation of the present to future generations....

  • The 2022 AG formats: Networking sessions, satellite meetings, GA sessions, etc.

    GYA General Assembly Sessions
    These are the core of any GYA Annual General Meeting, of course, and provide ample opportunity to discuss core GYA issues, and for members to vote on them. This year, among other items, we will discuss the proposed Code of Professional Behaviour and Conduct, and implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on young academy membership duration.

    The tools of the 2022 AGM: Zoom, Wonder, and the GYA Agora

    Originally posted in Ticker #3

    Zoom – We will once again be using Zoom for all the video conferencing sessions of the AGM (and conference). You can use Zoom without a local install – but might, after the past two years spent in pandemic times, have a local client installed already. Do check whether you have the latest update installed, and whether you have your login credentials at the ready.

    Sessions on Zoom will entail joining others live and on varying topics. You...

    Registration: sign up for the Workshops

    Originally posted in Ticker #3

    GYA Members and Alumni do not need to register in any other form than logging into the GYA Agora. This is the same space we used last year, and we are looking forward to welcoming you there again!

    However, in order to allow the LOC in Japan to prepare the conference sessions, there are two exceptions: for the Science Advice workshop on 13 June, and for the Science Fiction Prototyping workshop on 16 June, please sign up here by 5 June 2022:...

    If you are a resident of Japan, you will be able to meet in person.

    If you are not a resident of Japan, you will be meeting online.

    Heading into the third year of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it was simply not possible to allow for a full in-person conference and AGM this year. Rest assured, facing this reality happened with a heavy heart. We all want to meet again, and it requires quite large amounts of strength to continue...

  • Data costs coverage

    Data costs coverage

    Since meetings went online the last two years, we became more acutely aware as a global organization that the cost of downloading and uploading data – and thus the cost of participating in online meetings – can vary greatly in different regions and countries. (See this overview of varying mobile data costs around the world)
    The GYA therefore offers to members and new members from low and middle-income countries the option to request “data co-funding” for the purpose of participating in...
