From: Alexa Halford (Alexa.J.Halford at NASA.gov)

The 2016 NASA Living with a Star Targeted Research and Technology  (LWS TR&T) committee will be holding a tele-town hall on Friday April 8th at noon Eastern. We hope to have as much participation from the space physics community as possible as community input in this process is crucial. During this town hall the committee will discuss and answer questions on the new process for submission of science topics and the comment periods.  At the time of the meeting please join us by going to Join WebEx meeting using:
