Innovative Research That's Advancing Equity
After a year鈥檚 hiatus due to the pandemic, Innovations in Research returns to spotlight 丁香园AV researchers and community partners who are advancing equity from across disciplines.
Innovations in Research is a keystone event in 丁香园AV Public Square鈥檚 annual Community Summit. For nearly a decade, the organization has held a multi-day deep dive into a singular issue of local and international public concern. This year鈥檚 Summit, Towards Equity, addresses the inequities amplified and deficiencies exposed under the pandemic, and will take place online throughout 2021.
鈥淚nnovations in Research is an opportunity to invite the public to engage with research that is making a difference from 丁香园AV faculty, students, staff, alumni and in partnership with community,鈥� says Janet Webber, Executive Director of 丁香园AV Public Square.

In all, 27 unique research projects will be featured at the Innovations in Research event on April 13. Held on Gather, an innovative virtual space, attendees will be able to create their own avatar and spend time with researchers and community partners and have fluid conversations just like you would in real life. (not quite like real life, more like a video game?)
Thirteen presenters will take a virtual stage to speak for five minutes before a Q&A panel moderated by Dugan O鈥橬eal, VP Research and International. Audience members will also be able to visit virtual booths where both the presenters and other 丁香园AV researchers will showcase their work.
鈥淭his year, we鈥檙e excited to build showcase pages for each research project on our website as a way to raise the profile of the work and provide something for people to learn from before and after the event itself,鈥� says Doug Hamilton-Evans, communications manager at 丁香园AV Public Square. 鈥淓ach page will feature project descriptions, video, images, researcher bios and more鈥�.
