Review and Advisory Committee

The role of the IRM's Review and Advisory Committee is to provide external review and insight into ways the IRM can better serve the rock magnetic community, and to evaluate Visiting Fellows applications. Members come from all over the world and serve 2-6 year terms, meeting twice a year: once at a major meeting, such as AGU, and once here in beautiful Minneapolis.
