Monthly Trainee Meetings (List of Past Meetings)

Trainees are asked to attend monthly meetings, which focus on topics meant to support their professional development and range of academic and career interests. The meetings also serve to encourage research and education collaborations and community building. Regular meetings also allow time for organizational and administrative business.
