Professors often collaborate on projects with others close to home or around the world. A recent announcement of the 2017 Academic Plan Proposal Awards highlights how several CAHNR faculty members successfully work together with colleagues right here at UConn.
Seven people from the College, with various job titles, are included in three projects that aim to advance at least one of the five key goals of UConn’s academic plan.
“Collaborating is an increasingly important part of science because no one can be expected to know everything about the cutting-edge research, testing or treatments,” said Department of Allied Health Sciences Associate Professor in Residence Judy Brown. She has first-hand experience working with others in the genetics and genomics field and, with two colleagues from UConn Health, received a Level 1 Academic Plan Proposal Award for work in the area of teaching and engagement.
