Calling All Experts: Register Now for "Chat with an Expert" in New Orleans!

By Rachel Frohberg posted 01-07-2016 08:49 AM

  

The Graduate Student Leadership Committee (GSLC) is extending an invitation to participate in this year’s “Chat with an Expert (CWAE)” program. This program provides the opportunity for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to meet with expert toxicologists at the 2016 Annual Meeting in New Orleans, March 13–17, 2016.

Feedback from participants is very positive every year, and we encourage your involvement as an expert to lead a meeting with graduate students and/or postdocs.

Experts will choose a date and time for the meeting during the registration process that is convenient for their schedule. Graduate students and postdocs then will be able to select experts based on research, professional interests, and time availability. Each expert will be assigned no more than three students and will receive brief backgrounds on the assigned students before the meeting.

The meeting typically consists of a chat over coffee or snack, or simply an informal meeting in a relatively quiet area of the Convention Center. If an expert decides to meet during meal times, each person in the group is responsible for his or her meal expense.

Experts: Experts are asked to register by Friday, January 22.

Students and Postdocs: A separate registration link will be posted on Monday, January 25, after Expert registration has closed.

For more information on "Chat with an Expert," please visit the SOT website.

Sincerely,
The Graduate Student Leadership Committee
