Dashun Wang will present "Airplanes for the mind" as part of the AImpact Speaker Series.

This session focuses on developing the research strategy, writing the abstract and project narrative, and addressing rigor and transparency for NIH proposals.

Coral larval settlement is a critical factor in reef restoration strategies. However, it is also a highly selective process governed by the integration of multiple environmental cues. Identifying and controlling these cues will help to maximize restoration outcomes in degraded coral reef ecosystems.
