Research Spark Session — all are welcome to attend and listen!
Thursday, Oct. 8, 9-11 a.m.
Health Sciences Research Facility III, Room 1010, first floor (670 W. Baltimore St.)
Watch as selected researchers present their emerging research ideas in a fast-paced lightning talk format and receive real-time feedback from a panel of senior experts from across the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
This session offers a unique opportunity to hear how experienced researchers evaluate and strengthen new research directions, providing valuable insights for anyone interested in grant development, study design, or the research process.
While presenters are selected through a competitive application process due to limited time, all faculty, staff, trainees, and students are welcome to attend and observe the discussion. Whether you're developing your own research agenda or simply interested in learning from the feedback process, we encourage you to join us.
