Dear EMBRIO Members,

Join us this afternoon at 3pm EDT for our all-hands seminar with the Mullins lab leading the presentation for Thrust 3A. Our May 5th seminar will focus on Institute Competencies and their implementation as part of Thrust 4 research and practice led by the Gardner lab. We will wrap up the spring semester seminar series on May 19th with Thrust 4 research led by the Magana lab.  If you missed any previous seminars you can find the recording on our shared Box drive in the All-Hands Meetings Recordings folder.
 
All EMBRIO members have been sent an RSVP survey by email for input on this year’s summer school and annual meeting, along with a quick self-assessment of the Institute’s twelve competency areas. Please complete this survey asap so that we can best plan for an impactful week June 9-13 for the EMBRIO Summer School (Mon-Wed) and Annual Meeting (Thurs-Fri) hosted at Purdue University.
