Two slides at a time, our researchers share and connect with other faculty in under two minutes. The happy hour afterwards probably helps. Welcome to round two with 15 more researchers at the TechTalks.
TechTalks: Take Two
Researchers are pros at getting lots of information across in little space. How about in little time? That's the 2-slide, 2-minute challenge in the Michigan Technological University TechTalks.
We'll be tweeting highlights from each researcher's talk. 13 talks, 2 minutes each, 2 slides. #MTUResearchForum
