Each month, Rice researchers present on work at the intersection of the arts, cognition, and health sciences. The goal is to encourage and foster interdisciplinary conversation. Tea & cookies are served!
Important Update: The ARCHES Journal Club will be moving online as of March 2020.
Officials at Rice, along with health officials worldwide, are actively monitoring the local and global health status of the novel coronavirus that causes the COVID-19 disease. Rice has taken proactive steps to minimize health and safety risks to Rice students, faculty, staff and the larger community, and it has decided to move classroom instruction fully to remote synchronous mode for the rest of the semester.
