Touro Faculty Research Network (FRN): Collaborations
Co-Sponsored by CETL & School of Health Sciences
Faculty Research Network, hosted by Yocheved Bensinger-Brody & Carrie DiMatteo, co-sponsored by SHS and CETL, is a faculty-led initiative to facilitate conversation among colleagues about research. The goal for this group is to bring together researchers at all levels from all programs who will meet to support and promote one another’s research and scholarship. We will gather every 3 months on the fourth Wednesday of the month from 12-1 pm ET on Zoom. This is the third session focusing on Collaborations. New and returning participants are welcome to join. In this working meeting, the goal is to plan next steps in collaborative research projects based on shared research interests.
