	March 30, 2026 at 9:44 PM	Pending (3d, 3h)	Shark Tank Pitch Night	Research Club	03/30/2026	05/11/2026	Research Club is planning an event where students can pitch their research ideas to a panel of faculty with experience in both clinical and basic science research. This is a great opportunity for anyone who has an idea but isn’t sure how to get started, wants feedback on feasibility, or is looking for mentorship. During the event, selected students will give brief pitches (either individually or as a group) to a panel of faculty and clinicians. The panel will provide constructive feedback, guidance on next steps, and insight into how to turn ideas into real projects. Faculty and/or clinicians may also choose to mentor projects they find especially compelling. Whether students already have a fully developed idea or are just starting to think about one, we encourage all students to present their ideas and get feedback! Guest speakers are to be determined. We plan to tailor the panel of faculty and clinicians to the research ideas submitted, ensuring that the panel includes individuals with relevant expertise in the corresponding fields. To facilitate this, interested students will complete a Google Form indicating the topic of their idea. Once the panel has been assembled based on these submissions, we will finalize and submit the attending guest speakers.
