More details to come.

This interactive session is designed to help faculty navigate inventorship, intellectual property, and research translation with clarity and confidence.

This event is a platform to establish new connections and initiate a research exchange program between Freiburg and Penn State. Students, PhDs and PIs will have the opportunity to present their research with the aim of identifying collaborations and exploring exchange prospects.

The Fungal Biomaterials and Biofabrication Workshop is a Penn State event that will feature interdisciplinary presentations, panels, and discussion groups with the goal of initiating new research collaborations and initiatives on fungal biomaterials.

Meet up at Champs downtown to chat, eat, and drink with us and other researchers interested in adaptive architecture. See if there are collaborations for larger grant opportunities. No need to come with an idea or collaborator already and think broadly about adaptive architecture! (Not just bio-related.)

This event gives us the opportunity to foster scientific exchange between University of Freiburg and Penn State. During these two days, we will get to know graduate students at both institutions with the goal of identifying possible collaborations and partnerships; for example, you might learn about complementary research methods and techniques that suit your work and can help you with your research. There might also be opportunities for exchange visits for graduate students and postdoc opportunities in the future at both Penn State and Freiburg.

The main goal of this interactive webinar is to engage researchers from both institutions to identify, form, and foster productive and synergistic research collaborations that support innovative projects within the Adaptive Architecture research theme.

Participants in the symposium will engage in interdisciplinary dialogue to build an understanding of the effects of intersectionality on success and leadership in academia, with the goal of identifying pathways for transformational action and informing future initiatives. Registration is free. To see the full program and registration, please go to Intersectionality Symposium website. All academic leaders, and faculty interested in academic leadership, who seek to broaden and deepen their understanding of intersectionality and its relationships to leadership within academia are encouraged to attend.

Learn about the Convergence Center for Living Multifunctional Material Systems and its new seed grant program. This seed grant is focused on the discovery of sustainable materials that are biological or inspired by biological principles. The aim is to seed collaborations between researchers at Penn State University and University of Freiburg by exploring bold and intellectually brave research that could make a significant difference for society at large. - (Bio)materials for sensing, diagnostics, and actuation - Materials that enable adaptive architecture - Advanced manufacturing of hybrid multi-materials

The webinar focused on three emerging topics in living materials, namely materials for sensing and diagnostics, smart buildings and adaptive architecture, and advanced manufacturing. The goal of the webinar was to identify materials-related challenges, sharpen the focus of the joint activities in these topic areas, and provide the Center with a roadmap for global research partnerships in the coming years.

This webinar is the virtual kick-off of the research partnership between Penn State University and the University of Freiburg. The goal of the two-day webinar is to promote collaborations between researchers from Penn State University and the University of Freiburg by introducing ongoing research at both institutions in areas related to living engineered materials

Use this opportunity to connect with collaborators at Penn State and Freiburg and brainstorm grant ideas. Each team must have a plan to leverage collaborative opportunities from livMatS at the University of Freiburg, for example through research exchanges, PI collaborations, or use of resources.
