The Graduate and Research Committee of the University Faculty Senate, in collaboration with the SUNY Center for Professional Development, hosted the second virtual SUNY Graduate Research Conference (GRC). This virtual conference was held on April 11, 2023 and it brought together graduate student researchers and faculty mentors from across the SUNY system. By bringing together students and faculty from across the State, the Graduate Research Conference created a dynamic and innovative networking space and contributed to developing the synergistic power of the SUNY system.

The purpose of the SUNY Graduate Research Conference is to showcase the research excellence carried out SUNY-wide at the graduate level. This was the second edition of this statewide conference. Special thanks go out to SUNY Center for Professional Development (CPD), who organized the conference and provided logistical support.

The conference was recorded and the recordings are posted on the conference website for future viewing (http://suny.edu/gradcon). Furthermore, graduate students have been encouraged to post their posters in the SOAR Institutional Repository and an abstracts booklet will be placed in SOAR by the Committee.

SUNY graduate students in all academic fields were invited to contribute to the 2023 SUNY Graduate Research Conference (GRC) by submitting proposals to present their independent research and creative projects as posters. 

The goals of the conference were to provide graduate students the opportunity to present their research to a diverse audience and to serve as a catalyst to increase collaborations within the SUNY system by providing a virtual meeting space for faculty and students from across the SUNY system. The conference featured 59 graduate students’ submissions from across SUNY campuses in the form of posters and panel contributions, two panels, and an invited speaker. Student panels centered on Big Ideas crossing discipline boundaries and associated with high impact questions of potentially large societal impact and payoff.
  • What was the physico-chemical origin of life? 
  • Energy sources--which are   the most sustainable for the next generation?  
  • How should we understand and address gender-based violence around the world? 
  • How has Artificial Intelligence positively impacted society and what more can it do for the Common Good? 

Distinguished Research Professor Kenneth Dill from Stony Brook University delivered the keynote address on the topic of the physico-chemical origin of life. 

Dr. Isabelle Bichindaritz from Oswego, Chair of the SUNY UFS Graduate Committee, welcomed everyone and moderated the first Plenary Panel: How has Artificial Intelligence Positively impacted society and what more can it do for the common good?

The second Plenary Panel was moderated by Distinguished Professor Dr. Tiantian Zheng from Cortland:  How should we understand and address gender-based violence around the world?

The conference featured six breakout poster sessions: Arts and Education, Biomedical Informatics and Information Sciences, Climate Sciences, Medical Sciences, Psychology and Mental Health, and Sciences (Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Math, Computer Sciences).
