As part of their training grant committment, each trainee gives two presentations during their grant cycle: a journal club and a presentation of their research. These seminars take place on Tuesdays at 4 p.m. The full schedule for the academic year is below.
Please email Allison Bauer at allison.bauer@wisc.edu for the Zoom link information.
Every year, trainees select a theme for the coming year. This year the theme is:
