Hi Everyone:
I hope you all have had a good week. In light of Laurie Garduque's research post this morning, I wanted to circle back with you all about upcoming projects that will be developed for the Consortium. Over this next year, we plan to increase the frequency with which we release projects. Because we know you may need to be strategic about which projects you pursue, we wanted to give you a sense of the broad topic areas we expect will be targeted by projects released this year. Upcoming topic areas are listed below. They are very high-level and may be subject to change as new priorities emerge, but we hope it gives you a sense of where the SJC research agenda is headed over this next year. As always, please feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any questions at
Jennifer.Ferone@islg.cuny.edu. Thank you and have a great weekend!
