We’re here to help…

The U.S. Science Support Program (USSSP) facilitates the U.S. scientific community’s participation in the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP). We have funding for workshops, slides for presentations, and ideas for broader impacts. Need funding or need to know how to access data? Can’t figure out who to contact in IODP or where to turn? Ask us, we can help.
