As the 2026–27 academic year begins, Dean Sandra Smith welcomes new master’s students to the Brown community.

This year’s community brings together students with diverse perspectives, experiences and goals, united by a shared commitment to learning, collaboration and professional growth.

“Graduate education extends beyond the classroom,” Dean Smith writes. “It is equally about the connections made with peers, the exchange of ideas across disciplines and the communities built together.”

Here’s to a year of new connections, new ideas and new opportunities. Welcome to Brown!

🏗️ A look inside Brown’s future for life sciences research

The William A. and Ami Kuan Danoff Life Sciences Laboratories is taking shape on Brown’s Providence campus, bringing the University one step closer to opening a state-of-the-art hub for life sciences research.

At seven stories and 300,000 square feet, Danoff Laboratories will be the largest academic laboratory building in Rhode Island when complete. The facility will support Brown-led research across areas including aging, immunity, brain science, cancer and biomedical engineering. 🔬

The building is designed not only for cutting-edge research, but also for collaboration. Flexible research spaces, shared meeting areas, an auditorium, education lab, café and a skybridge connecting to Brown’s Laboratories for Molecular Medicine will create new opportunities for researchers, faculty, students and the broader community to connect and exchange ideas. 🤝💡
