Research Identity Ideation Workshop: Basic Mechanisms of Disease

This spring, the Office of Research and Innovation will offer a series of virtual ideation workshops designed to help faculty advance research, scholarship and creative endeavors within the university’s six research identity areas.

First introduced during the May 2025 Research and Innovation Convening, the research identity areas spotlight areas of strength and distinction at Nebraska, the state’s flagship research, land-grant institution.

The upcoming workshops will give faculty an opportunity to connect with colleagues across campus, generate ideas for new projects and partnerships and identify steps needed to mobilize resources within each identity area. Workshops will be held via Zoom from 12:30-5 p.m. Central time on the following dates:
