Pre-ARCs
Pre-ARCs are Research Forums organized in preparation for submitting an application to the Evans Center to become a fully or partially funded ARC or Research Forum, respectively.
We invite you to post here as a pre-ARC a summary of your thoughts and plans for an ARC, including names of PIs who are interested in joining. Your 1-2 page outline will provide enough information for other colleagues to consider participation in the ARC. As is the case with the pre-ARCs posted here, I will discuss and review with you research themes. For additional information, please contact me (Katya Ravid) at kravid@bu.edu.
