Science on Tap: How To Think About Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration

108 SN

COE PhD Council presents SCIENCE ON TAP How To Think About Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration with Dean Gregory Abowd NU’s Academic Plan pushes us to consider impact in the world, and that requires more than a discipline-specific mindset. Having positive impact on problems of our world requires collaboration across multiple communities with different languages, methods, and incentives. […]

ChE Seminar Series: Orchestrating Cellular Regeneration at Organ Scale

108 SN

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Yvon Woappi, Ph.D. K99/R00 MOSAIC Fellow at Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital Abstract Large scale tissue damage, such as organ failure and burn injury, is a leading cause of morbidity and death. However, the mechanisms underlying full regeneration of organs remain poorly understood. As the largest organ system in […]
