Conference Description
The Gordon Research Seminar on Signal Transduction by Engineered Extracellular Matrices 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 seminar is conducted in an informal setting designed to foster both academic discussions and social interactions among peers with an emphasis on developing the scientific network of trainees.
This meeting will focus on the development and application of engineered matrices in advancing cell biology, tissue morphogenesis, and regenerative medicine technologies. This meeting will bring together early career trainees and investigators to network, collaborate, and expand their research programs in a collegial environment. The meeting will conclude with a career panel consisting of invited speakers from academia, industry, government, and science communication to offer "personalized" career advice for exploring/navigating diverse career paths.
