About

The National Academies invites you to this public report release webinar on Thursday, November 3 at 12:00 PM ET. This study evaluated the important role Land Grant Universities and Colleges have historically played in research, education, and the distribution of information and practices to support America's highly productive agriculture community. The report describes key steps for enhancing the coordination and collaboration within the Land Grant system and how these steps can increase the impact of research, education, and extension on the success of U.S. agriculture.

This is a public release webinar in which an overview and findings of the report will be presented, and committee members will address questions from the audience.

The full report will be available for free download from the National Academies Press at 11 am ET on November 3, 2022.

The webinar will be streamed online only, in real-time.

About

The ability of institutions and their faculty to participate in collaborations varies across the land-grant system, as do expectations for the benefits an institution receives from collaboration. Institutions use funds to support collaboration differently, in ways that can affect the nature of faculty participation. In some cases, there are no dedicated funds to support collaboration while in other instances, faculty members may be fully committed to teaching and other assignments that leave them without the capacity to engage outside their main responsibilities. Some schools are able to handle administrative responsibilities for large collaborative efforts, and others don't have the kind of infrastructure needed to be a fully invested partner. This workshop session will explore how capacity affects collaboration from the perspective of individuals at three different kinds of land-grant institutions.

The workshop session is open to the public.

About

There are many examples of great collaborations between colleges and universities in the land-grant system, but what is it that makes them great and how do they succeed in the long term? Importantly, what does it take to engage schools across the 1862-1890-1994 spectrum in collaborations so that the diversity of the land-grant "system" can be fully engaged? Join the Committee on Enhancing Coordination between Land-Grant Colleges and Universities to hear a panel of presenters offer insights and engage in discussion on how the system can enhance the opportunity and power that collaboration offers.

The meeting is open to the public.

Enhancing Collaboration and Deepening Impact: Can Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (AI) Enable New Collaborative Platforms Between Diverse Land-Grant Institutions and Create More Impactful Outcomes?

About

In 2020, USDA/NIFA and NSF initiated a collaboration to establish new Artificial Intelligence (AI) institutes to accelerate research, expand America’s workforce, and transform the future of the system. The power of data science and analytics in food and agriculture can only fulfill its potential if all land grants contribute, and have access to, well-curated and properly integrated data assets. Join the Committee on Enhancing Coordination between Land-Grant Colleges and Universities to listen to presentations from participants involved in these centers of excellence to understand the opportunity they offer to catalyze inclusive collaboration and support impactful science.

The meeting is open to the public.
