    The ancient poet Sappho coined "sweetbitter" in one of her most evocative verses, still striking us to the heart nearly three millennia later. As with so many ancient figures, the poet is more legend than person today, her story told and retold even as her poetry continues to enchant and move. This exhibit will be on display through mid-August 2026.

    Web of Science is a large multidisciplinary platform of abstract databases for articles, book chapters, and conference proceedings. This session provides insight and strategies for getting the most use out of the platform. We will highlight how to search for literature and authors, as well as where to find citation and grant information.

    We are inviting doctoral students to join this discussion on dissertation writing and research. Later-stage PhD candidates will share their research, writing, and time management techniques. Each panelist will talk about strategies that have worked for them (or strategies that definitely have not worked).

    A Scoping Review is a type of evidence synthesis that represents an exploration of research literature to understand the depth and breadth of research related to a specific question or topic. A scoping review maps concepts from the literature to reveal trends, themes, and gaps in the research area to inform, and provide context for further exploration or examination.
