2012 Faculty Research Day

Faculty Research Day flyer

October 26, 2012
1:00 p.m.
School of Nursing Auditorium (G013)
with a reception in the School of Nursing Atrium following the program

I would like to bring to your attention several changes in the program for this year.

• First, the length of the program has been condensed to two hours and a reception with posters will follow. This year our keynote speaker will be John A. Milner, PhD, Director, Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center at USDA-ARS.
• Second, the last hour of the program will recognize the Chancellors Club, Thomas L. Noffsinger Investigator and the Faculty Investigator Research awardees by highlighting their research careers and future research endeavors; this will be done in place of giving formal presentations by the awardees.
• Third, Adobe Connect will be available for our faculty off site or anyone else not able to attend the live event.

The reception will be open to all as this event recognizes the efforts that have put forth by our faculty and staff throughout the year. Posters will be limited to highlight those who have received career development awards, such as BIRCWH Scholars, CTSA Scholars, Frontiers Pilot Awards and Career Awards (K02, K08, K12, K23). I hope you find the new format rewarding and, as always your feedback is welcome.

Faculty Research Day was initiated in 1982 with the intent of celebrating research at KU Medical Center and recognizing the excellent work of the KU Medical Center research community. The day provides researchers within KU Medical Center with an opportunity to share their work with other investigators and to hear a research presentation by a world-class scientist from outside the Medical Center.
