Poster session and reception: Research seed funding in action
Seed funding awardees from 2011 present posters and hold Q&A Sept. 27
Awardees who received funding from last year’s grant writers’ boot camp will present posters and hold a Q&A session on Sept. 27.
RIT’s Sponsored Research Services Office will host a poster session and reception featuring faculty who obtained research seed funding awards in 2011.
The event is from 3 to 5 p.m. Sept. 27 in the University Gallery.
Awardees who received funding from last year’s grant writers’ boot camp are midway through one-year projects, which will develop a foundation for externally funded research. In addition, faculty winners of the Strategic Acceleration of Research for Tenure Track Faculty awards will also present posters. These awards fund efforts to obtain preliminary results for incorporation into future proposals.
All the participants will be available to answer questions.
