Dear EMBRIO Community,
A few announcements:
Our Weekly Update is canceled on Monday, September 5th in observance of the Labor Day Holiday. We will be back September 12 with presentations by Qing Deng’s Lab and GuangJun Zhang’s Lab.
Thank you to everyone involved in reporting efforts to provide an annual progress update to our NSF program manager in stewardship of our NSF funding. Your timely responses made the job go smoothly. The report was submitted on time with all necessary documentation. We will look forward to, and share, any feedback from NSF. EMBRIO Members can access the complete PDF of the Institute’s Year 1 report on Box: EMBRIO BII NSF Annual Report 2022<https://app.box.com/s/hcu5cowhcbbhgilivwvxy28lerywu3ko>
October 18-19, 2022. Our NSF Biology Integration Institutes Annual Virtual Conference will be held online and run by NSF BII Program Officers. ALL EMBRIO members are encouraged to participate, as you are able. Registration link, schedule, and topic session details are forthcoming from NSF. Each day is forecast to run from 10am – 5pm EST. At this early-stage, planning discussions are focused on sessions that are most useful for developing successful institutes, team science and overcoming integration challenges, NSF expectations, student perspectives on interdisciplinary mentoring, methods and lessons learned on data sharing and management, and modeling approaches in common with most BII’s. Stay tuned for more information.
Send your news items and announcements today to me (laddb(a)purdue.edu<mailto:laddb@purdue.edu>) for inclusion in the next edition of the EMBRIO newsletter.
Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable Labor Day Holiday,
Brent
