About this Event

MSU's Institute for Quantitative Health Science & Engineering (MSU IQ) is the home of groundbreaking research in engineering, human medicine and natural science. MSU IQ is focused on training the next generation of scientists to do more than just traditional research. Researchers and students from the College of Engineering, College of Human Medicine and the College of Natural Science are led by faculty from top academic centers around the world as they work. The space is dedicated to collaborative, interdisciplinary research in these three areas to help solve world problems through teamwork across different areas of study.

The Mid-Michigan Spartans are hosting a discussion and tour of IQ with founding director, Dr. Christopher Contag. Dr. Contag is an engaging speaker who easily translates the work of IQ researchers to concepts a general audience can absorb.

This event overview will be updated with the names and disciplines of featured researchers as the information becomes available.
