1. NEW MEMBER OF THE MAX MILLENNIUM CHIEF OBSERVER TEAM =======================================================

It is a pleasure to welcome a new Max Millennium Chief Observer. Aoife McCloskey is presently a PhD student at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. Her thesis supervisors are current MM_CO Shaun Bloomfield and one of the original MM_COs, Peter Gallagher. Aoife is three years into her PhD and has concentrated on evolution of active regions in terms of their McIntosh classifications and how these impact on subsequent 24-hr flaring rates (http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016SoPh..291.1711M). Her current work is in applying these evolution-dependent rates in Poisson-based forecasting and verification of their performance.
