Session Description: This Panel Discussion will provide a look at the Dual-Career problem of spousal placement.  Early career and post-doc scientists, grad students, and anyone interested in this topic should attend!  Information will be provided by panelists who will share their personal experiences with Dual-Career placement and Science Administrators from institutions having formal spousal placement policies. Following is a one-hour Meet-and-Greet from 4:30-5:30 (open to all) - similar to the highly successful 2017 event: Food (and Drink!) For Thought: A Facilitated Networking Event for Women in Soil Science.  Thanks to Bio Huma Netics, ASF, and SSSA for funding and supporting this program.
