MAUT Forum: Implementing the Recommendations of the Naylor Report
An event hosted by the 成人VR视频 Association of University Teachers (MAUT)
As you know, the Naylor Report comes out strongly in favour of funding basic research through the tri-councils, SSHRC, NSERC and CIHR. However, a concerted effort is needed to see its recommendations implemented. Toward that end, we have organized a panel discussion broadly centered on three aims:
1)听听听听听 How do researchers engage federal politicians and ministries to see this report implemented?
2)听听听听听 How do we better engage the public to see the value of basic research?
3)听听听听听 What skillsets are needed for us to see aims 1 and 2 accomplished?
Attendance is limited and must be confirmed by June 15th by registration only at: maut [at] mcgill [dot] ca.
