InSPIRE (Interdisciplinary Science and Policy Initiative for Research Engagement) is a interdisciplinary workshop sponsored by Rackham Graduate School. It is designed to bring together graduate students and postdoctoral scholars from policy, law, business, science and engineering to discuss policy issues related to science, health and technology.
We plan to have bimonthly meetings that include
· opportunities for students to present research or policy issues and stimulate interdisciplinary discussions
· presentations by invited speakers including the opportunity for networking
· book club discussions and excursions related to science policy
· a science, technology and public policy symposium at which students can present their scientific research or policy related job/internship experiences
Our schedule for the term can be found on our website (https://sites.google.com/a/umich.edu/inspire/).
Join us for an information and networking event with free pizza and drinks,October 3rd, 6 pm, at the Ford School of Public Policy, room 1220 (735 S. State St).
We hope that you will all choose to participate, and to invite colleagues in your own and other programs to participate as well. Feel free to distribute the attached flyer.
