Recent meetings of Faculty Research Network (FRN) have been about collaboration, engaging students in research, research design, and most recently qualitative research. In our next FRN meeting on Wednesday, June 18, 12-1pm ET on Zoom, we will continue the discussion of qualitative research methodology. Participants will be invited to share and workshop their own research ideas. Come to share and be inspired by what your colleagues are doing and how to expand your own research portfolio. Active participation is required. Faculty Research Network (FRN), hosted by Yocheved Bensinger-Brody & Carrie DiMatteo, is a faculty-led initiative to facilitate conversation among colleagues about research. The goal for this group is to bring together researchers at all levels from all programs who will meet to support and promote one another’s research and scholarship.
