Graduate Student Breakfast
Supported by the Burroughs Wellcome Fund
This breakfast presents an opportunity for graduate student members of
the Society to meet and discuss the issues they face in their current career
stage. Members of the Early Careers Committee will be available to answer
questions about how the Committee serves graduate students in the
biophysical community. Limited to the first 100 attendees.
