"Duets" Season Two: Collaborative Research at the Intersection of Campus and Community

Duets logo

Welcome to Season 2 of “Duets,” a podcast that showcases research collaborations between faculty, students and community partners across Durham and North Carolina. 

These Duke + Durham partnerships aren’t just about research — they’re about relationships, impact and discovery.

You’ll hear from faculty–undergraduate duos reflecting on mentorship and research practices at the heart of a Duke undergraduate education, and faculty–faculty teams — including a Duke–UNC collaboration, a Duke–NCCU partnership and an interdisciplinary duo within Duke — showcasing the strength that emerges when different perspectives come together.

From the intersection of mental health and the carceral system, to the transformative power of art in confronting injustice, to bringing computer science education to public schools, each episode brings new perspectives on how collective efforts can address local challenges and foster positive change.
