2016-2017 Schedule
Check out the 2016-2017 New Frontiers in Biomedical Research Brochure.
This year the New Frontiers in Biomedical Research Seminar Series continues to expand to a critical area beyond the research bench to explore related career paths and the responsibility of research and education. In collaboration with Louisiana Tech’s Waggoner Center and Sigma Xi the series will host Dr. Karen Oates, Dean of Arts & Sciences at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. She will speak on her involvement in promoting civic engagement and responsibility of scientists. In the continued partnership with Louisiana Tech’s School of Design, the series will host Ms. Natalie Doolittle, Director of Medical Animation, High Impact & Syntropy Studios who will present on the professional field of medical illustration and the need for visual communication of science. Over the last three years the series has continued to grow and demonstrate the interdisciplinary nature of biomedical research. We are excited about the new collaborations for the 2016-2017 academic year.
