About this Event
Join the Office of Research and Innovation for a showcase of interdisciplinary teams supported through the Strategic Convene & Influence Awards. The Convene and Influence program empowers faculty to build partnerships across disciplines, convening campus stakeholders to advance agendas that shape future research, policy, and practice aligned with UC San Diego’s strategic research themes.
This event is an opportunity to learn about the accomplishments of the first cohort, connect with colleagues around emerging collaborations, and explore ways to engage in advancing UC San Diego's strategic research themes.
