About this event

Don’t let your new connections fade away! In part two of our program, BIIG Ideas, faculty are invited to join a series of facilitated ideation workshops focused on identifying and refining interdisciplinary concepts, strengthening collaborations and drafting action plans to help make your BIIG Idea a reality.

Workshop 3: From Ideas to Action
TBD via Zoom for your interest track

    Research-focused faculty, staff, and postdocs are invited to join a three-part series of facilitated ideation workshops in one of three interest tracks: AI + Health, AI + Education and AI + Environment. The development and use of responsible and trustworthy AI (i.e., AI accountability, reliability, explainability, privacy and security) will be a cross-cutting theme across all tracks, so researchers working/interested in these research topics are especially encouraged to attend. Working with faculty in common interest areas, participants will develop shared concepts for interdisciplinary research, resulting in a 1-2 page concept outline for potential partners or funders. This will include a 3-6 month action plan for continued advancement and progress. 

    BIIG Ideas workshops focus on identifying and refining interdisciplinary concepts, strengthening collaborations and drafting action plans to help make your BIIG Idea a reality. Groups participating in BIIG Ideas will have the opportunity to apply for a BIIG Start Award of up to $10,000 for continued team development support. All are invited to attend, even if you did not participate in the networking event.
