This by-invitation only event brings together CCNA partners and the CCNA research community, to engage in interactive sessions and discussions on proposed innovative research activities. Participants will share their novel research ideas and will strengthen existing and develop new collaborations that will lead to a robust, innovative research agenda for the CCNA.
