Speed Networking Events for SIUE Researchers: Biomedical & Biobehavioral Research Areas
Date: Tuesday, March 31, 10:30-11:30, 2015, MUC, Redbud/Oak Room
See Speed Networking Home Page for instructions and further details.
Practice your 3-minute "elevator speech" as you participate in a fast-paced, fun event meant to expose you to the research on campus and inspire you to establish new, productive relationships. Researchers will share their topics in an accelerated fashion with a group of researchers sharing similar interests.
Research in Biomedical & Biobehavioral
Topic areas will include a wide range of biomedical and biobehavioral research areas of participating faculty in order to facilitate collaborations.
