Connecting ideas, people, and possibilities within CALS and across Cornell. 

The CALS Research Forum is a new monthly discussion series that brings together researchers, students and staff from the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) and across the broader community to explore emerging themes in agriculture and the life sciences from multidisciplinary perspectives. Through short presentations and open discussion, the forum aims to highlight innovative directions, spark new research opportunities, and hold space for multidisciplinary connections. 

Sponsored by the CALS Research and Innovation Office and collaborating partners, the Forum supports shared discovery and forward‑looking research planning.
