WXYZ DETROIT — On Sunday, November 9, Spotlight on the News will take a deep dive into Wayne State University’s bold new Grand Challenges initiative. What exactly is it and how might it impact some of this society's most pressing problems? We'll ask Dr. Ezemenari M. Obasi, Vice President of Research and Innovation for WSU. We'll also interview Darlene King Turner, CEO of The Unity Collaborative which is bringing a national leadership conference to downtown Detroit next month.
