Panel Session 9: Theory and Practice - Engaging Co

Panel Session 9: Theory and Practice - Engaging Conversations Across Disciplines.

Speaker: Prof. Henrietta Nyamnjoh.

Host: Dr. Olatunde Ogunbiyi.

Summary:

This engaging session facilitated meaningful collaborations across disciplines.

In-person participants were divided into five groups, with a separate group for virtual participants. Each group worked together to develop research studies, which their principal investigators (PIs) presented.

After each presentation, Prof. Nyamnjoh solicited feedback from participants on their experience with collaboration and seeing the results. She emphasized the importance of researchers engaging with others' work to foster appreciation and understanding.

Prof. Nyamnjoh also encouraged active participation, leaving room for contributions and questions from the audience. She stressed the importance of fostering a collaborative environment, where individuals engage in conversations "with" and "among" each other, rather than simply talking "to" one another.

This approach promotes a deeper understanding and exchange of ideas, aligning with the session's goal of engaging conversations across disciplines.

Day Five.

Panel Session 8: Navigating Grant Opportunities.

Speakers: Prof. Cyril Obi and Prof. Henrietta Nyamnoh.

Host: Prof. Afe Adogame.

During the session, the speakers provided a comprehensive overview of grant opportunities.

Prof. Obi emphasized that grants should be viewed as a chance to collaborate with experienced researchers and work extensively, rather than as a means to indulge in luxuries. He also discussed the challenges posed by heavy workloads in universities, which can hinder research exploration.

Prof. Nyamnoh reinforced Prof. Obi's points by sharing practical examples and personal experiences. She presented various grant opportunities to the participants and directed them to different websites for further information.

To illustrate their points, the speakers used relatable analogies, comparing grant opportunities to marriage and grocery shopping. These analogies helped to drive home the importance of careful planning, commitment, and strategic decision-making when navigating grant opportunities.

Additionally, she stressed the importance of collaboration and belonging to research associations, echoing Prof. Olupona's earlier remarks.

Overall, the session provided valuable insights into navigating grant opportunities, and participants were encouraged to take advantage of the resources available to them.
