Dear I2D colleagues, Happy New Year! With a generous endowment from Manu and Rika Shah, the I2D Lab is now called the Shah Family Global Innovation Lab. With Andrea heading up the LASER-PULSE project, we are currently searching for an Assistant Director for International Development (ADID) and the Program Manager for the Shah Family Global Innovation Lab. In the next few weeks, several on-campus interviews will be scheduled and we would like you to have a chance to meet and interact with the candidates. On 1/24 and 1/25, two candidates for the ADID position will be on-campus. We have scheduled lunch meetings (11:30-1:00) on both days for you to meet with the candidates (1/24 meeting will be in Wang 2501 and 1/25 in Wang 1004). Please let Tami know if you plan to attend and list any dietary restrictions. If these times do not work for you and you wish to meet with the candidates, please also let Tami know so that we can try to find a time for you to meet with the candidates. Thank you very much and we look forward to hearing from you. Best, George ----------------- ----------------------------- George Chiu Purdue University +1-765-494-2688 gchiu@purdue.edu<mailto:gchiu@purdue.edu>
