NASA SSERVI: Merging Science and Human Exploration

The NASA Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI) is a virtual institute focused on research at the intersection of science and exploration, training the next generation of lunar scientists, and community development. As part of the SSERVI mission, we act as a hub for opportunities that engage the larger scientific and exploration communities in order to form new interdisciplinary, research-focused collaborations. This talk will describe the research efforts of the thirteen domestic teams that constitute the U.S. complement of the Institute and how we will engage the community through workshops, conferences, online seminars and classes, student exchange programs and internships.
