Dear EMBRIOphytes,

With input from everyone in the Institute, we are preparing to invite and engage with outside speakers on simulation and modeling, calcium signaling, and actin dynamics.  

As a starting point, the Leadership Team has nominated a list of potential guest speakers to present during our All-hands meetings this spring semester, as well as into summer and fall dates.  

Ideally, we will bring guest speakers to the Purdue campus, where as many members as possible can engage with them in person and have one-on-one sessions if desired (we will also broadcast via Zoom, and we will also be inviting our partner PIs in person to Purdue during 2024 to give seminars and interact as well). 

Please use this quick online survey to indicate your interest in the speakers below, and/or to nominate additional speakers (deadline: January 26th). 

Thanks for your input,

Brent
