Solicitation: NSF Inclusion across the Nation of Communities of Underrepresented Discoverers in Engineering and Science (NSF INCLUDES) (22-622)

When:  Wednesday, July 19, 2023 | 3:00–4:00 p.m. CT / 4:00–5:00 p.m. ET

Hosted by John MacMullen, MBDH Executive Director, The Collaboration Cafe is a monthly webinar open to all that is focused on building a community of data science researchers in the Midwest and beyond to explore funding opportunities and develop proposals. We are focused on elevating early-career scholars, particularly from under-resourced institutions, but everyone is welcome, including participants from industry, nonprofits, and government agencies.

The Collaboration Cafe is an informal meeting, but has some structured elements during each session, including a funding opportunity walk-through, lessons learned from prior awardees, researcher lightning talks, small group discussions, and a speed-networking segment.
