Conference Description
The Gordon Research Seminar on Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.
The focus of this meeting is to showcase novel approaches for engineering dynamic biomaterials for tissue engineering applications, including but not limited to disease modeling, implants for tissue regeneration, and microenvironments for controlling cellular fate. Additionally, there will be a Science Careers panel at the end of the meeting featuring speakers in Science Communication, Industry Start-Ups, and Science Editing, who will describe their transition from their academic (PhD or Post-Doc) positions into to their current role and provide tips for navigating careers outside of academia.
