Since 2000, in cooperation with Geographical Analysis (GA) and the Department of Geography, The Ohio State University, the Spatial Analysis and Modeling (SAM) Specialty Group of the Association of American Geographers (AAG) has established a tradition of co-sponsoring a plenary speaker at the annual AAG meetings.
Year | Location | Speaker | Title |
---|---|---|---|
2025 | Detroit, MI | Elizabeth Delmelle | It Probably Doesn't Cause Gentrification: Reflections from an Urban Spatial Analyst |
The AAG Spatial Analysis and Modeling (SAM) specialty group and Geographical Analysis are delighted to announce this year's annual lecture in Detroit will be given by Elizabeth Delmelle from the University of Pennsylvania. The title of her talk is, "It Probably Doesn't Cause Gentrification: Reflections from an Urban Spatial Analyst." Time to mark those calendars and make your plans to be there!
Delmelle's lecture is scheduled for Thursday, March 27th, at 4:10pm in Room 260 on Level 2 of Huntington Place. This is an in-person only event.
As is our tradition, the lecture will be immediately followed by a celebratory reception for session attendees! However, this year's reception is *extra* special and unprecedented-a celebratory two-fer as SAM/GA and the Transportation specialty group join reception forces to co-honor both Fleming and SAM/GA Lecture speakers! You'll want to say you were there! One room, three fantastic events: Fleming Lecture, SAM/GA Lecture, reception (for all attendees of either Lecture!)!
Hope to see you there!
