FSU Office of Research:

Discovery Days

 

Mark your calendars! The FSU Office of Research is proud to announce the first ever Discovery Days, a weeklong celebration of research, creativity and discovery.

This exciting week will take place Oct. 2-7. 

Discovery Days has something for everyone — from concerts to “Shark Tank” style pitch competitions — come experience some of what makes FSU so special.

Florida State University has incredible faculty, students and staff engaged in creativity and discovery. Discovery Days celebrates FSU and gives the public a behind the scenes glimpse.

The week kicks off Monday with a public lecture from Dr. Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa, a renowned neurosurgeon at Mayo Clinic Florida who was featured in the Netflix documentary series “The Surgeon’s Cut.” Dr. Quiñones-Hinojosa is the father of an FSU alumnus and collaborates with FSU scientists.

On Oct. 3, a special concert will feature innovation in the arts and include faculty members from literature, music and math. And on Oct. 4, five FSU researchers will face off for cash prizes of up to $50,000 to help advance their technologies from the lab to the marketplace.

The weeklong celebration concludes on Oct. 7 with a family friendly event showcasing the university’s physics and art education faculty who have joined forces to offer families an exciting view of ocean waves, radios and lasers.
