CAE Community of Practice Cyber Research
Get to Know Your Fellow CAE-R
Join us as we host a monthly series of presentations from our fellow CAE-R institutions to learn about their research foci as well as some of their recent research results. In order to avoid conflicts with the CAE TechTalks, we will hold the "Get to Know Your Fellow CAE-R" events every FOURTH Thursday of each month, from 2pm ET to 4pm ET on Zoom. Preregistration is necessary to attend the events.
Each event will have two CAE-Rs presenting. Each CAE-R will have a maximum of 60 minutes to present: 10 minutes for the general introduction on research foci of the institution by the POC, followed by UP TO TWO presentations of no more than 15 minutes each on recently peer-reviewed, accepted/published results by faculty or students, and a ~15-20 Q&A session on the presentations and networking. It is up to the institutions to decide which research results are featured as part of their presentation.
In case of any questions, you may reach out to the co-chairs of the initiative, Isabelle Brown-Cantrell and M. Einaam Alim from the University of Alabama in Huntsville.
Interested in Presenting in the Future?
If you are interested in presenting your institution at a future event, please complete this questionnaire here. POCs Isabelle Brown-Cantrell and M. Einaam Alim from University of Alabama in Huntsville will be in contact with those who express interest in presenting their institutions.
Presenting in the context of this initiative counts towards meeting Criterion 10 for the CAE-R Redesignation Requirements.
Next Event: August 28, 2025
Preregistrations are currently open. Please register here.
