MRI-MSC Gather.Town Info & Request to Book
Mission
To create a virtual space in Gather.Town to support materials-related and multidisciplinary research and enable collaboration during COVID-19 times when people are not able to physically meet. MRI created this space for the Millennium Café talks, group meetings, and other events so that multiple teams can collaborate simultaneously "in the same room" while also allowing for larger discussions to be had with the entire group.

For Faculty
- MRI Slidedeck (.pptx) - [UPDATED OCT. 2020] MRI Marketing Team has created this slidedeck to use in presentations and proposals. It is a resource to pull information, but is best used in its entirety and viewed in "Slide Show" or "Presentation" mode. While in this view, you can use the "more info" icon and "back arrow" icons to navigate, (or simply view it linearly).
- Humanitarian Materials Engineering Flyer (.pdf) - MRI’s Vision for Humanitarian Materials Engineering - The Materials Research Institute, which coordinates interdisciplinary materials related research at Penn State, is actively expanding its humanitarian materials engineering initiative with strategic partners within the University and beyond.
