This new series aims to place greater emphasis on our trainees and provide them with an opportunity to present their research to the broader CPN community.
Each seminar will feature presentations from trainees when possible from different CPN laboratories, with the goal of showcasing the diversity of research across the network and encouraging interactions and discussions among trainees and PIs.
We hope that PIs will encourage their trainees to participate, both as presenters and attendees.
