"10 Research Challenges for GVU"
Abstract: In October 2007, we will celebrate GVU's 15th anniversary and many activities this year aim at this finish line. The most important activity requires input and contemplation from all of us. Fifteen years into this venture, what is the mission of GVU? What should we be about? What activities will really matter in the long run? What risks should we take? What does (or should) the outside world expect us to accomplish? I'll open this conversation to the entire GVU community this Thursday at the opening brown bag with a talk I've titled "10 Research Challenges for GVU." In contrast to previous "what is GVU doing" overview talks, my intent this time is to shine bright light on goals for our GVU community that present a compelling mix of potential impact, innovation, importance and insight. We will start the conversations on Thursday and by October we will present our mission to the rest of the world. In the meantime, we'll have plenty of ships to steer toward that goal (recruiting, GVU labs, research investments, strategic partnerships, student community, GVU website.....). Let's get going! |
