Celebrate Research and Reconnect: COVID-19 Seed Grant Lightning Talks

22 Education Building

Event Type: Seminar/Symposium

Speaker Information: BER Director Jessica Li and COVID-19 Research Teams

Now is a great opportunity for us all to gather and spotlight the diverse and significant research efforts undertaken by College of Education research teams with COVID-19 Seed Funding. 

To that end, the Bureau of Educational Research is pleased to bring you Lightning Talk sessions over two days this September. We offer these talks as a space for the 19 seed-funded research teams, and colleagues, to share and hear more about their research experiences and findings. It is also an opportunity for all to make connections with these research teams.

Both sessions will include lunch, conversation, and lightning talks. Please reserve the following dates on your calendar:

  • Wednesday, September 14
    Noon-1:30 p.m.
    Room 22 Education
  • Tuesday, September 20
    Noon-1:30 p.m.
    Room 22 Education

This will be a face-to-face event with the option to connect virtually for those unable to join us in person. 

We are working with new logistics of gathering as this fall semester starts. Please help us navigate by registering and reserving your lunch:
