Lunch is provided.

The Department of Developmental Biology’s Regeneration, Aging, and Development (RAD) Research Forum is a combination of the research talks format and RAD journal club. The format is two 30 minute talks (20 minute presentation, 10 minute discussion) each week (Wednesday at noon). One talk will be a Work in Progress talk from a RAD community lab and one talk will be a Journal Club presentation.

We encourage presentations from students, postdocs, staff scientists, and faculty. We hope that many of you will volunteer to present in one or both of these venues. We strongly encourage participation from all RAD community labs.
