Taubman Talks

The Taubman Institute Talks Science

One of the cornerstones of the Taubman Institute is a collaborative environment, where the exchange of ideas and creative interaction across disciplines are vigorously promoted.

As part of this mission, each month we hold a brown-bag series called “Taubman Talks”, at which members of all the Taubman laboratories get together to share and discuss their latest research. Occasionally, esteemed colleagues from outside the university are invited to speak, as well.

The talks generally are held at 4 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month in the Danto Auditorium of the University of Michigan Health System’s Cardiovascular Center.

The schedule of upcoming Taubman Talks includes:

2011

Oct. 5:  Dr. Charles Burant laboratory
Nov. 2:  Dr. Arul Chinnaiyan’s laboratory (5 p.m. start)
Dec. 7:  Dr. J-P Jin, Wayne State University

2012

Feb. 1:  Dr. Johann Gudjonsson and Dr. David Ginsburg

Collaboration outside the laboratory

In addition to supporting scientists and their research, the Taubman Institute has developed programs to foster collaboration outside the laboratory.  Taubman Talks and our new Visiting Professor lecture series are two ways we share the latest in scientific discoveries with colleagues, the campus and the community.
