Spotlight Q&A
Get to know members of the Lehigh Research team. This month, we welcome our new AVPR:
Dominic Packer
Associate Vice Provost for Research in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences
How would you describe your job to a layperson?
I see my job as having two overarching goals... To help increase the amount, ambition, and impact of research in the arts, humanities, social sciences - and beyond. And to help increase equity and inclusion in all our research endeavors at Lehigh.
What are your hobbies? I am a very amateur photographer. Trying to compose good photos uses parts of my brain that need a lot more developing!
Do you have a pet? Tell us about them. I have a lovely labradoodle named Biscuit. He is handsome and affectionate, and in every way a very good boy.
