Conference Description
The 2022 Gordon Research Seminar on Extracellular Vesicles is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other young scientists to present ideas and share unpublished research, while also building collaborative relationships with colleagues and peers in a non-intimidating environment.
On Saturday, the seminar will feature a keynote address from Dr. Susmita Sahoo as well as sessions that cover the biological characteristics and heterogeneity of EVs. On Sunday, the focus shifts towards elucidating the role of EVs in both disease progression and disease therapy.
Application Instructions
The seminar will feature approximately 10 talks and 2 poster sessions. All attendees are expected to actively participate in the GRS, either by giving an oral presentation or presenting a poster. Therefore, all applications must include an abstract.
The seminar chair will select speakers from abstracts submitted by April 24, 2022. Those applicants who are not chosen for talks and those who apply after the deadline to be considered for an oral presentation will be expected to present a poster. In order to participate, you must submit an application by the date indicated in the Application Information section above.
Program Format
Gordon Research Seminars are 2-day meetings which take place on the Saturday and Sunday just prior to the start of the associated GRC. The GRS opens with a 1-hour introductory session on Saturday afternoon, followed by a poster session, dinner and a 2-hour session in the evening. Sunday morning begins with breakfast and is followed by another 2-hour session, a second poster session, and lunch. A final 1-hour session takes place just after lunch, and the associated GRC begins later that evening.
An outline of the program components for this GRS is displayed below. The seminar chair is currently developing their detailed program schedule, which will include the speakers they select from submitted abstracts, in addition to any additional components outlined below. The detailed program will be available by May 24, 2022. Please check back for updates.
