The Wharton Risk Center hosts research seminars for post-docs, PhD students, master’s students, and research staff to share work-in-progress for feedback. We welcome research topics focused on climate risk management and resilience and encourage presenters to include policy implications. Please reach out to Helen Wiley if you would like to present. These seminars are scheduled in an ongoing basis according to when most helpful for presenters.
