OARS would like to invite you to participate in our 2nd annual Research Fair, to be held on September 11th from 11:00 am-1:00 pm. Location of the event will take place in the Heritage Room at Shriver Center. This idea was hatched in response to feedback we have received from both new and continuing faculty regarding the need for information about research support services available to them from around campus. The 1st Research Fair, last year, was largely a success and we are hoping for even greater participation and attendance this year. This event is modeled around the annual Benefits Fair and will invite units from around campus that falls into one or more of these categories:

• provide internal funds to support research (CFR, college/department level support)

• research centers

• collaborative research opportunities

• laboratory services

• evaluation/writing/statistical support services

• grant proposal development assistance

• research compliance support

• support for undergraduate research

• crowdfunding

We hope that you will join us for this event, which includes lunch and refreshments.
