On hand will be representatives from institutions that have recently surmounted the $100K/faculty mem- ber research funding threshold, to discuss in a step-by-step manner spe- cific activities that can be used to progressively increase institutional capacity. This session will be professionally facilitated so that each person leaves with an action plan tailored to his/her institution.
