Conference Description
The Myogenesis GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.
This GRS meeting will focus on topics under the umbrella of myogenesis such as the molecular determinants of muscle development, the influence of support cells on muscle stem cell function, and how dysregulated processes contribute to muscle diseases and aging. A particular emphasis will be placed on innovative techniques and technologies that will create new opportunities for scientific discovery. For nearly two days, trainees will have the opportunity to share their work through talks selected from submitted abstracts and poster sessions, providing numerous formats to maximize interactions. Engagement with fellow GRS attendees prior to the subsequent Myogenesis GRC meeting will also provide a network of peers to network and open to future collaborations with leaders within the field of muscle biology.
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 March 2, 2025. 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.
