CALS Community Research Forum

The CALS Inaugural Research Forum is a new monthly series bringing together researchers from CALS and across the broader Cornell community to explore emerging themes in agriculture and the life sciences. Through short presentations and open discussion, the forum highlights innovative directions, sparks collaborations, and creates space for informal research connections, brainstorming and future projects. Sponsored by the CALS Research and Innovation Office and collaborating partners, this series supports shared discovery and forward‑looking research planning.

Details

Faculty, staff, postdocs, and students are welcome. Please feel free to share this with colleagues whose work intersects with these themes. Feel free to bring your own lunch as we gather to exchange ideas and explore emerging opportunities.
