Event description

GFI is pleased to offer this virtual collaborative mixer to help researchers meet others interested in collaborating and submitting proposals for GFI’s 2024 RFP. During this 90-minute session, attendees will have an opportunity to share their backgrounds and interests and participate in small group discussions based on the research goals shared during registration. These workshops will not serve as information sessions, and we ask that participants come prepared with a research project in mind.
