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.
