The Office of Research Affairs will host a Central Research Forum on Wednesday, October 23, from 3:30-7:00 p.m. in the Wright State University Student Union. All School of Medicine faculty and research graduate students are invited to attend and participate.

DATA BLITZ (3:30-4:15 p.m.; E156 Student Union): Ten presenters will get 2 minutes each (using just one overhead transparency) to tell the audience why they should take a closer look at the presenter's research during the poster session. John Turchi will moderate this fast-paced event.

KEYNOTE SPEAKER (4:15-5:00 p.m.; E156 Student Union): Grants consultant Paul O'Brien will share his insights about writing successful NIH proposals. Following a long career as an NIH biochemist, O'Brien joined Health Research associates, a Rockville, Md.-consulting firm. He has provided valuable grant-writing expertise to Wright State investigators for more than ten years.

RECEPTION & POSTER SESSION (5:00-7:00 p.m.; Multipurpose Room, Student Union): All School of Medicine faculty and research graduate students are invited to present posters on their current or recent research. Posters presented at national conferences in the past year are strongly encouraged. This session is an opportunity to share your research with colleagues and potential collaborators in a stimulating, convivial setting.

Data Blitz slots are available to the first ten poster presenters who ask for them. Please contact Mark Willis by Wednesday, October 16, if you plan to present a poster. For more information, email him or call 775-3814.
