The Department of Developmental Biology at Stanford University is looking to build connections and solidarity with senior PhD candidates from a diversity of disciplines and backgrounds. For this purpose, we are inviting applications from senior graduate students interested in joining us (either in person or remotely) at our annual retreat to be held on the Stanford Campus on September 14-15, 2021. Travel expenses will be covered. Selected applicants will give short talks on their current research, and will have both formal and informal opportunities to interact with faculty and trainees in our department. Upon selection, applicants will also be offered guidance on the postdoc transition, including information on funding opportunities and postdoc resources at Stanford. We see this as an opportunity to learn, connect, grow and perhaps work together in the future. Please click here to apply by 11:59 PM Pacific Time on Monday, August 2, 2021 (previously Friday, July 30, 2021). Decisions will be announced by August 16, 2021. Please be prepared to submit a CV and references if selected. For more information, contact devbioppp@stanford.edu.
