Suggest a topic for cross-institution collaboration

Students taking the seminar for credit are required to write synthesis/review papers on specific topics of interest. We encourage collaborative efforts on these papers, but working together across institutions presents logistical challenges. Within this forum, you may champion a topic you are particularly interested in working on collaboratively with others. Provide a summary of the topic and build a case for why the topic is both important and relevant to the seminar. Other students can then respond if they are interested in working with you. Note that we will put some limit on the number of people who work together (5 perhaps).
