The University of California, Riverside recently became the first minority-serving institution to become a member of the Institute for Research on Innovation and Science (IRIS), a consortium of research universities focused on providing data to understand, explain and improve the public value of higher education and research. Rodolfo Torres, Vice Chancellor of Economic Development and Research at UCR, will speak about the value of IRIS data on the economic and human impacts of sponsored research for the UCR community. Jason Owen-Smith, executive director of IRIS, will address the potential for aggregating data from minority-serving institutions to help illustrate their impact and unique role in the U.S. research enterprise.
