Global Grand Challenges Lunch & Learn

Join us for an enriching afternoon at the **Global Grand Challenges Lunch & Learn**, where we will delve into the question, "What Makes Grand Challenges Grand?" This event, open to undergraduate students conducting summer research at Vanderbilt, will explore the defining characteristics of grand challenges as articulated by various institutions and organizations. Topics will include eradicating diseases, brain research, enhancing infrastructure resilience, promoting sustainability, and reducing child mortality, laying the groundwork for deeper discussions on addressing complex global issues.

Additionally, participate in **Tour Tuesday: Peabody Sculpture Tour** to discover the sculptures and public art of Vanderbilt's Peabody Campus. This tour will celebrate the rich history and artistic legacy of the campus, once home to Roger Williams University and Peabody College for Teachers. Attendees will learn about the significant figures and historical narratives embedded in the artworks, providing a unique perspective on the campus community's evolution.
