Creativity in Research

Our most innovative research is driven by creativity and excitement, but in crossing from the known to the unknown, we frequently get stuck. In this workshop, we will explore how to design for deep work, how to manage and increase our energy and motivation, and how to organize workdays and develop strategies to get unstuck.  Working alone and in pairs, we will use prototyping to help us test ideas early, seek out feedback on unfinished work, and enhance our progress.
