Planning for the Cell, Developmental and Integrative Research Retreat is well underway. This is an event scheduled for September 13-15, 2023. The CDIB retreat has always been a wonderful opportunity for students, faculty and post docs to focus on science and to establish new collaborations away from the distractions of everyday life. As always, the department will pay for rooms and meals with the group (this covers all meals during the retreat).

We are finalizing the agenda, but we plan on scheduling the poster session on Thursday night with keynote speaker TBA, on Thursday evening. We are strongly encouraging each faculty member with a research program choose a representative to participate in the oral presentations. Any graduate student or post-doctoral fellow not providing an oral presentation is encouraged to participate in the competitive poster presentation. Prizes will be awarded for the best poster/oral presentations.

We look forward to seeing you at the retreat!
