On behalf of the MIT Health and Life Sciences Collaborative (MIT HEALS), we invite you to the Core Facility Innovation Symposium—a celebration of breakthrough discoveries enabled through collaborative partnerships between MIT research groups and our shared scientific core facilities. This symposium will feature dynamic dual presentations where laboratory researchers and core facility scientists will share the stage together, each telling the story of their discoveries and collaborative innovation. These presentations will reveal how close partnerships between scientific expertise and technical infrastructure transform ambitious ideas into impactful discoveries. The event will bring together trainees and researchers from across MIT’s diverse scientific community alongside their core facility partners to showcase the creative, cutting-edge projects they have advanced together. This symposium will highlight the great science that emerges at the intersection of individual creativity and collective resources—where innovative minds meet innovative infrastructure. Join us for an engaging afternoon of learning, discussion, and recognition of the outstanding collaborative work happening across our Institute.

When: Wednesday, April 29, 2026, 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm, with reception to follow
