Title: "Evidence into Impact: Research at the Policy Table"
Description: How does research shape policy decisions? How can we bridge the gap between academia and policymaking? Join us to learn from local experts as we discuss how research is used (or not used) in designing and implementing public policy, and how researchers can better connect with the policy sphere.
Panelists:
Maurice Classen: Former Chief of Staff to the Chicago Mayor
Jadine Chou: Former Chief of Safety and Security at Chicago Public Schools
Avik Das: Executive Director of Cook County Justice Advisory Council
Location: Norris University Center, Wildcat Room
