A virtual conference, the Showcase is unique. While the intended audience is everyone (including faculty scientists), it will feature oral and poster presentations by non-faculty scientists ONLY. This format provides the maximal opportunity for students, postdocs, and faculty to interact and network. Further, workshops will feature training (e.g., how to best communicate your science) and panel discussions (e.g., how to do prepare for an academic job search).
Registration is FREE.
We look forward to seeing everyone soon.
