Arts Collaborative Conversation: Art-Science Integration

How are university research programs supporting the integration of art and science?

Mary Beth Leigh, Lissy Goralnik, and Megan Halpern will virtually join the Arts Collaborative for an informal conversation about convergent research and collaboration.

Leigh (University of Alaska Fairbanks) and Goralnik (Michigan State University) direct the In a Time of Change (ITOC) project, an incubator for advancing environmentally focused art-science integration in Alaska. ITOC is supported by the National Science Foundation, USDA Forest Service, and the Bonanza Creek Long-Term Ecological Research Program in Alaska.

Halpern and Goralnik are leaders of the Center for Interdisciplinary Research, Collaboration, Learning, and Engagement (CIRCLE) program at Michigan State University. CIRCLE launched in the fall of 2023 to build community, provide training and support for interdisciplinary activities, and conduct research on interdisciplinarity.

Hosted by the Arts Collaborative student organization.
