For specific writing resources in different fields, reach out to us.

Coming Soon! Details on Faculty Writing Retreat, Faculty Writing Groups and more. Watch this space for all grant related news.

Join "The Writing Hive" and write with peers and "Support each other" throughout the semester.

Writing could be any activity ranging from the spark of a new idea to polishing a near-complete project (article, grant proposal, exhibit, book chapter, course material etc.). Join us on Mondays (10:30-11:30 a.m.) and/or Thursdays (1:30-2:30pm). Join the mailing list to get information on meeting venues by contacting Matthew DiMatteo or Heather Dalal.

Breakthrough Technological Innovations and AI-Integrated Solutions for Complex Societal Challenges. Complex societal challenges require an "all hands on deck" approach, requiring methodologies and infrastructure to support collaborative teams. This talk will outline the critical role and synergistic catalysis potential of advanced cyberinfrastructure (CI) and artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing the effectiveness and scalability of innovations and team work, discussing both the technological underpinnings and practical implementations of AI-integrated solutions and systems. Through examining real case studies leveraging open data platforms and scalable CI, the talk will highlight the role of composable systems and services to catalyze platforms to empower users from all backgrounds to engage in meaningful research, learning, and discovery. We will explore interdisciplinary approaches that combine expertise from multiple fields, enabling the creation of innovative, sustainable solutions that can adapt to evolving challenges. We will also discuss the needs for a digital continuum and AI-integrated ecosystem where data and research infrastructure are seamlessly integrated and universally accessible, bridging the gaps between data and computing through robust services, facilitating an inclusive AI landscape that empowers diverse research communities and domains. This approach underscores the importance of open, extensible, and equitable systems in driving forward the capabilities of AI, ultimately contributing to the resolution of grand scientific and societal challenges. Lastly, we will overview how the National Data Platform (NDP) and WIFIRE use this integrated use-inspired services approach to lower the barriers to entry and to streamline research and education workflows as well as societal challenges.

The impact of international labor migration on the demographic dividend and development outcomes in low- and middle-income countries. International labor migration, economic development, and the demographic dividend are key components of development impacting low- and middle-income countries. This webinar will discuss the relationship among these factors that may be used by policymakers, development agencies, NGOs, and other stakeholders to create a more resilient and inclusive future for labor migration. This event will outline the conditions necessary to take advantage of the demographic dividend and describe the roles that international labor migration can play in maximizing gains such as workforce development, remittances, investments, and technology transfer. This webinar is hosted by the National Academies’ Societal Experts Action Network in collaboration with the Committee on Population.
