What is Research Connections ?

Research Connections is a seminar series that provides professional development and networking opportunities for faculty. Originally developed and implemented by the School of Social Work and Connell School of Nursing, the series has been expanded BC-wide through a partnership with the Schiller Institute. Session topics will focus on strategies to amplify the public impact of research, leveraging AI to support research and how to engage with media and other communication venues.
