GRC Announces a New Offering For Young Investigators: Gordon Research Seminars (GRS)
August 06, 2009

Graduate students, post doctoral students, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education gather together for the GRS on the Saturday immediately before the associated Gordon Research Conference (GRC) to present their work, discuss cutting edge aspects of their research, and build collaborative relationships with their colleagues at a critical time in their careers.

This is what you can expect from your GRS experience:

  • Give a talk - speakers are selected from submitted abstracts
  • Present a poster and get valuable feedback and suggestions
  • Network with your peers in an informal atmosphere
  • Engage in scientific discussions at the forefront of your field
  • Interact with leaders who may serve as mentors during your career
  • Gain the confidence and visibility to participate in the related GRC

Discover for yourself why Gordon Research Seminars have met or exceeded expectations for over 97% of participants. Here are a few reasons why your colleagues recommend attending a GRS:

  • "The small size and collegial atmosphere are ideal for making long-lasting connections."
  • "It is a unique experience for young researchers - nothing else could provide such a highly motivating atmosphere especially for the young generation of scientists."
  • "Somehow the GRS struck the perfect balance of broad expertise and focused knowledge which made for great communications."
  • "The close formal and informal interactions fostered over just two days will potentially last the span of one's career; the small group of peers enables very quick, comfortable bonding."
  • "You will likely leave the GRS feeling re-energized about your work and the entire field."
  • "This is the best meeting for quality interactions with a multitude of interested (and interesting) colleagues."
  • "This type of meeting is exactly what students and post docs need to raise the interest and intellectual level of trainees working at the cutting edge of science."
