Conference Description
The Gordon Research Seminar on Alcohol-Induced End Organ Diseases is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting-edge ideas.
The 2021 Gordon Research Seminar on Alcohol-Induced End Organ Diseases is an excellent opportunity for trainees in labs studying alcohol-associated injury spanning in experience from early graduate students to senior post-docs to meet and build a future network of peers.
Since the Gordon Research Seminars are focused on trainees, specifically, an important aspect of maturing as a scientist is dealing with so-called “negative data". Many, if not all, scientists confront inconclusive, paradoxical, and contradictory experimental results. Hearing the stories of successful projects from other scientists who developed the appropriate means and perspectives to navigate the ever-present difficulty of interpreting so-called negative data will be immensely informative for trainees.
Application Instructions
The seminar will feature approximately 10 talks and 2 poster sessions. All attendees are expected to actively participate in the GRS, either by giving an oral presentation or presenting a poster. Therefore, all applications must include an abstract.
