The National Science Foundation announces that Brian W. Stone will serve
as NSF Director's Chief of Staff, and related personnel changes within
the Antarctic Sciences Section (ANT) and the Arctic Sciences Section in
the Division of Polar Programs (POLAR).
Brian W. Stone, who heads the Antarctic Infrastructure and Logistics
(AIL) section in the National Science Foundation's Division of Polar
Programs, will begin an assignment as chief of staff to NSF Director
France A. Córdova on 1 May 2016.
Scott G. Borg, who is currently the head of the Division's Antarctic
Sciences Section, will replace Brian as the head of AIL. Eric Saltzman,
who is currently head of the Division's Arctic Sciences Section, will
become the head of Antarctic Sciences.
Simon Stephenson, who formerly headed the Arctic Sciences section before
taking a temporary assignment in the White House Office of Science and
Technology Policy, will once again assume the role of Arctic Sciences
Section head.
"This is an excellent opportunity for Brian and a fantastic chance for
him to use his managerial skills to benefit the entire foundation," said
Kelly K. Falkner, Division Director. "Although we will miss him during
his upcoming assignment, we in Polar are fortunate enough to have a
depth of talent and ability in our ranks to ensure that NSF remains a
global leader in polar science with continuity in all of our operations."
