Join us at the 2022 UI Research Services Fair!
Thursday, Oct. 20, 2022 -- 1 p.m.-4:30 p.m.
@ Hancher Auditorium
The Research Services Fair (RSF) is a vendor-style fair that provides an opportunity for researchers to learn about campus resources and services available for their research and scholarship activities. Over the past two RSFs, over 60 campus units have introduced their services to approximately 400 faculty, staff, and students. This year’s event will be hosted at Hancher Auditorium.
Fair attendees will:
- Learn about campus’s cutting-edge instruments and technology as well as many other services available in support of funding applications and research programs.
- Interact with centers, institutes, core facilities, and other service units in a virtual vendor-style fair.
Target Audience:
Researchers of all levels (i.e., faculty, staff, post-docs, students) and research support staff.
