MATHEMATICIAN DIJKGRAAF TO HEAD UN PANEL ON CLIMATE
Robbert H. Dijkgraaf, a Dutch physicist and mathematician and co-chairman of
the InterAcademy Council, will head a group of top scientists from around
the world who will review the research and management practices of the
United Nations (UN) climate change panel so that it can try to avoid the
kinds of errors that have brought its work into question in recent months.
The study group, representing a variety of scientific disciplines, will be
financed by the UN but will operate independently and is expected to
complete its review by the end of August 2010. For more information see
