The National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded Platform for Exchange and Allocation of Resources (PEAR) program explores the impact of digital platforms on society. This program supports PhD students conducting research related to the distribution of economic opportunities, sustainable consumption, equitable access to goods and services, ethically informed technology design, and the role of technology in reshaping labor and business practices.

PEAR is hosting a poster session on April 25th at the Cabral Center, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM, where our cohort of three PhD students will present their research. In attendance will also be industry leaders working in related fields and faculty members researching these topics, providing a valuable opportunity for engagement and networking. Click here to view the industry leaders on PEAR’s advisory board. If your research aligns with the themes of the PEAR program, we would love for you to join us in presenting a poster alongside the other trainees. This will be an excellent opportunity to showcase your work, refine your presentation skills, and connect with faculty members and industry leaders in your field. There will also be a workshop before the event where the Northeastern University Commlab will provide feedback on your poster and presentation skills.
