[cid:b36af26d-9026-4e3e-8039-209d3f45825f] DIRECTORS’ NOTE Plan to join us for the Institute’s all-hands seminar this coming Monday, November 25th , 3PM ET with “Development of EMBRIO as a Community of Practice” (abstract in the newsletter) presented by Soumi Mukherjee and Emily Georgopoulos in the Gardner Lab at Purdue<https://www.bio.purdue.edu/lab/gardner/>. Their research is a central component to understanding interdisciplinarity evolution, functioning, and community derived value of our Institute, as well as providing insights into evidence-based intentional improvements the Institute can incorporate. EMBRIO investigators at Purdue – it is time it is time to post your summer research projects with the SURF program to recruit undergraduate researchers to your lab! EMBRIO will cover the faculty portion of the stipend and housing agreement. The SURF program provides an 11-week on campus research experience. Get your project posted by December 1st for priority consideration (details and links below). There is a new First Time Researcher program that provides an additional $1K scholarship – but your proposal must be in by tomorrow, Friday, Nov. 22nd (see below). Mayesha Sahir Mim, Ph.D. Candidate in EMBRIO (Zartman Lab) at Notre Dame, will defend her Ph.D. dissertation on "Engineering Morphogenesis through Calcium Signaling and Cellular Mechanical Mediators." She invites all EMBRIO members to join her talk Tuesday, November 26th at 9:30AM (Zoom<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Furl%3Fq%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fnotredame.zoom.us%2Fj%2F9721071389%3Fpwd%253DTkRmNXR0blNVa0ZNTnJoYTB5NzJ1dz09%26sa%3DD%26source%3Dcalendar%26ust%3D1723661277769596%26usg%3DAOvVaw2r0W_fWrt52VpBJOn4_kmF&data=05%7C02%7Cembrio-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C7bcf006fad2b43ab2ec408dd0a6bf7d0%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638678181016026242%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=ioWlvUjs8jG7%2F2VncoPQpF3lZYiuHclf%2BYMExnEQuQI%3D&reserved=0>).

For those in northern climes, the winter holiday season brings with it not only dragging fir trees indoors and imbibing warm mugs of cider, hot chocolate, and hot buttered rum, but also freezing temps, snow, icy winds, and significantly fewer daylight hours – this can lead to the “winter blues”, technically known as seasonal affective disorder.

Sustaining BIIs requires addressing members' diverse needs across time and space. Using the Community of Practice (CoP) change theory, we examined a BII's progression from its potential stage to stewardship stage, documenting its development through meaningful, shared, and coordinated activities. Feedback gathered from evaluation surveys and interviews informed repair mechanisms to support member growth and expertise. Insights from this study can guide other Institutes in fostering collaborative CoPs through intentional structures, activities, and evaluation strategies. Nov. 26, 2024: Mayesha Sahir Mim, Ph.D. Candidate in EMBRIO (Zartman Lab) at Notre Dame, will defend her Ph.D. dissertation on "Engineering Morphogenesis through Calcium Signaling and Cellular Mechanical Mediators." She invites all EMBRIO members to join her talk (in person or via Zoom): Time: Tuesday, Nov 26 at 9.30 am Location: McCourtney Hall, B01 Zoom Link: https://notredame.zoom.us/j/9721071389<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Furl%3Fq%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fnotredame.zoom.us%2Fj%2F9721071389%3Fpwd%253DTkRmNXR0blNVa0ZNTnJoYTB5NzJ1dz09%26sa%3DD%26source%3Dcalendar%26ust%3D1723661277769596%26usg%3DAOvVaw2r0W_fWrt52VpBJOn4_kmF&data=05%7C02%7Cembrio-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C7bcf006fad2b43ab2ec408dd0a6bf7d0%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638678181016494992%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=8FFOh3DOahUU9R412%2Baf2hYqKBuTN4DmLz%2F1bGGUVUw%3D&reserved=0> Passcode: 071389 (please send Brent advanced notices of your graduate thesis defense dates and details, so that we can announce these to the community!).
