When: Thursday, March 25, 2021; 2:00-3:00 p.m. CT

National Institute of Health’s National Institute for General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) is committed to increasing biomedical research capacity, including at institutions where faculty have significant teaching responsibilities. In these settings, research collaborations across institutions can be especially beneficial. An upcoming webinar explores this topic.

  • Timothy B. Clark, professor, department of chemistry and biochemistry, University of San Diego
  • Wendi M. David, senior lecturer, department of chemistry and biochemistry, Texas State University
