Home - VLab Forum
Purpose
Research and innovation are the lifeblood of NWS operations. To ensure this essential elixir continues to flow, the Virtual Lab (VLab) Support Team (VLST) hosts a forum each month to showcase potential transition projects. During the forum, a subject matter expert gives a talk on a project which is followed by a lively discussion on the project's implications for NWS operations. Participants can attend forums remotely using GoToWebinar or in person in Building 2 of the Silver Spring Metro Complex. To sign up to receive meeting announcements, please email the VLST at vlab.admin@noaa.gov. |
