Virtual Professional Development Series - Workshop 6: Research in the World

Workshop 6 - Research in the World
Wed. July 17th 1 pm
What happens to research after it leaves the laboratory or library? How can research impact the general public and society at large? During this workshop, speakers whose research has gotten out into the world will talk about what it is like to see their research be used, for good or bad, and what control they have over how their research is used. Workshop speakers also will discuss how their research has been applied to real world issues and give advice for future researchers.
Panelists: Robert Patterson, PhD, Professor of African American Studies, Georgetown University; Sohini Ramachandran, PhD, Hermon C. Bumpus Professor of Biology, Director, Data Science Institute, Brown University
