    All Trainees Trainees should prepare a 3-4 minute introduction about themselves and their project—no slides! Audience will be quiet diverse from 2nd year graduate students just getting into labs to faculty and also from very different areas. These short “elevator … Read More

  • CVTG RIP – Hot Seats

    MR6 Room 2502
    Research in Progress

    All Trainees These sessions are initiated by having Dr. Isakson randomly selecting a trainee (by pulling a name from a jar) to give a 5-6 minute summary of their research project without slides indicating why their project is important, what … Read More
