Junkyard Brewing | 409 Sheyenne St, West Fargo, ND
Arrive early to purchase food and drinks before the program begins at 6 pm.
Advance registration is required. Tickets will not be available at the door.
Tales of Bringing Innovation to Market
How has AI helped or hindered efforts to bring innovation to market? How can current gaps in these efforts be better bridged? What is missing in this region to help move research and new ideas into industry?
In this Knowledge on Tap conversation, Dr. Chad Ulven will explore these questions and share perspectives on innovation, entrepreneurship, research, and the process of translating new technologies for real-world use.
Professor Chad Ulven joined North Dakota State University in 2005 and teaches and conducts research in the area of advanced materials, with an emphasis on polymer matrix composites for commercial and defense applications. He is a University Distinguished Professor and serves as Associate Dean for Research in the College of Engineering, Director of the Great Plains NSF I-Corps Hub, and Site Director for the NSF Center for Biopolymers and Biocomposites I/UCRC.
His work focuses on training university researchers to think more entrepreneurially and helping translate research-developed technology to industry. He has served as PI, Co-PI, or Senior Personnel on 87 research grants at NDSU totaling more than $36 million and involving more than 50 outside companies. He has co-authored 9 book chapters, 93 journal articles, and more than 100 conference papers related to polymer matrix composites. He is also the co-author of 7 patent applications, which have led to 4 patents and 3 spin-out companies.
Professor Ulven earned his bachelor’s degree from North Dakota State University and his graduate degrees from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
The conversation will be moderated by Dr. Heidi Grunwald, Interim Vice President for Research at North Dakota State University. Dr. Grunwald holds degrees in mathematics, mathematical statistics, and higher education administration from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and is a trained quantitative methodologist.
Before coming to NDSU in 2023, she spent 20 years at Temple University in research leadership roles, including work in research administration, technology transfer, clinical trials, survey research, and legal epidemiology.

Metaphor and the Body: Explorations of Head-Heart Dualism
Why are head and heart metaphors so culturally prominent? What are the advantages of head-centric versus heart-centric ways of interacting with the environment? Can we use these metaphors in strategic ways?
In this Knowledge on Tap conversation, Dr. Michael D. Robinson will explore these questions and consider how metaphors of the head and heart shape the ways people think about emotion, reasoning, and the world around them.
Dr. Robinson is a University Distinguished Professor in the Department of Psychology at North Dakota State University. He joined NDSU in 2001 and is recognized internationally for his work in personality, emotion, and social cognition.
Robinson has published more than 300 scholarly works, including books and journal articles, and has served as editor for leading social and personality psychology journals.
