Organizers:
Jason (Chang) Marvin, PhD and Jillian Beveridge, PhD

The Postdoctoral Fellow Match Poster Session will showcase posters from senior graduate students and other trainees planning to apply for a postdoctoral fellowship position in the upcoming year. The primary goal of this session is to provide an opportunity for these candidates to showcase their past, present, and future research plans for faculty, T32 directors/members, and others looking for postdoctoral fellows, to facilitate the identification of strong candidates for postdoctoral fellowship positions. By gathering a critical mass of potential candidates, we anticipate an enthusiastic response from faculty that are planning to recruit new postdoctoral fellows. Postdoc candidates will present a poster based on their research performed to date.

Future Faculty Poster Session

Organizers:
Lin Han, PhD and Z. Alan Li, PhD

The Future Faculty Poster Session showcases senior post-docs, residents, and fellows planning to apply for their first independent faculty position in the upcoming year. The primary goals of this session are: 1) to provide an opportunity for future faculty members to present the goals of their proposed independent research program by showcasing their past, present, and future research; and 2) to provide an effective means for Department Chairs, search committee chairs/members and senior faculty to identify strong candidates. This session benefits not only the participating senior trainees and recruiting faculty, but also more junior trainees by providing them with an opportunity to observe the process of transition from trainee to faculty. Thus, the Future Faculty Poster Session is an engaging session for all ORS members.
