CIT can broadcast your seminar, conference or meeting live to a world-wide
audience over the Internet as a real-time streaming video. The event can
be recorded and made available for viewers to watch at their convenience
as an on-demand video or a downloadable podcast. CIT can also broadcast
NIH-only or HHS-only content.
The event features a keynote address, “Habits and Habitats of Inventive People’ by Arthur Molella, Ph.D., Director, Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation, National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution; talks by the 2004 Pioneer Awardees - the first “graduating class;” talks by scientists who received Pioneer Awards in 2008, poster sessions by Pioneer and New Innovator Award recipients, a roundtable discussion, “Innovation: Interplay Between Technology Development and Hypothesis-Driven Research,” and ample opportunities for informal interaction. At the start of the symposium, the 2009 recipients of the NIH Director’s Pioneer and New Innovator awards will be announced. Both programs support exceptionally creative scientists who take highly innovative, and often unconventional, approaches to major challenges in biomedical or behavioral research.
