Interested in food and community-focused research? Want to be part of a growing interdisciplinary initiative at Michigan State University?

You're invited to a mixer on March 28 from 6-8 p.m. at Lansing Brewing Company, 518 E. Shiawassee St., Lansing, Michigan 48912. Faculty from the Colleges of Agriculture and Natural Resources (CANR), and Arts and Letters (CAL) are encouraged to attend this event, which will feature one hour of three-minute "lightning talks" and an hour to network.

Food@MSU is a campaign that aims to educate the public about food and its impact on our health, our society and our planet. This spring, through a partnership between CANR and CAL, two grants of up to $10,000 will be awarded to interdisciplinary food-related projects at MSU.  

Both those interested in giving a talk and those interested in attending only should register online. Applicants wanting to present will be notified if they have received a slot on March 21.

Grant applications are open. Detailed information about the grant requirements can be found here: http://food.msu.edu/articles/foodmsu-detailed-grant-application-information.

For more information, contact Stephanie E. Vasko, managing director of the MSU Center for Interdisciplinarity, at vaskoste@msu.edu.

Sincerely,

The Food@MSU Team
