 Subject: MASSMAIL - Reminder - Fed. Funding Town Meetings April 15-16

Vice Chancellor for Research Charles Zukoski would like to invite you to 
participate in a series of town meetings on "Federal Funding 
Opportunities - Taking Advantage of a Changing Environment." Now is the 
time for UIUC faculty to respond to changing societal needs and federal 
priorities and to help shape the research and scholarship agenda of the 
next administration in Washington. 

The town meetings will include Lewis-Burke Associates, who are working 
with our colleges and units on developing strategies to expand federal 
funding opportunities. Lewis-Burke staff combine up-to-date knowledge of 
the Washington environment with in-depth experience in research and 
education issues and building relationships between University faculty and 
federal agencies.

Three town meetings have been scheduled:

April 15 - 9:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. - 5602 Beckman Institute  - 
Opportunities for the Physical, Engineering and Environmental Sciences

April 15 - 1:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. - Monsanto Room, ACES Library  - 
Opportunities for Social and Behavioral Sciences, Humanities and the Arts

April 16 - 9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. - 612 Institute for Genomic Biology -  
Opportunities for Biomedical, Agricultural and Life Sciences

At each of these meetings, the Vice Chancellor will chair a panel 
presentation by staff from Lewis-Burke Associates, who will discuss 
trends, priorities, and opportunities at various federal agencies, 
followed by questions and discussion.
