On Sunday, Texas State students and faculty were able to present some of innovative projects they have been working on during the Texas State Innovation Lab at the Austin W Hotel. I was able to talk with Michael Burns to discuss his project, CoSearch, an intense creative conference that produces interdisciplinary research teams tasked with creating unique and innovative research proposals.

CoSearch’s main focus is to break down academic silos and bridge research and creative activity to produce cutting-edge and possible grant-funded projects that unite researchers and artists from the University.
