Denis‐Didier Rousseau smiles shyly when discussing his new role as the chair of AGU's Fall Meeting Program Committee. “I'm not used to giving interviews,” he says. Nonetheless, he becomes very passionate as he begins to talk about his views on transdisciplinary science and its role in AGU meetings, on including more young scientists in planning meetings, and on the importance of virtual meetings. Rousseau, who is currently a visiting professor at Columbia University, sat with Eos to share his excitement about working with AGU.
