[cid:b7c8c49f-b4a4-42dd-bda0-917620b38e31] Dear EMBRIOnic People, 👀 Anyone interested in leading a topic for discussion at today's Working Proposal Teams Session - March 9th, 3pm EDT, please contact me by 1pm. If there are no topic leaders for this session, we will cancel the session. Several teams have recently formed around specific funding opportunities and are moving forward convening discussions outside of the working teams session. Best wishes to all who've submitted proposals so far.

Based on your availability, I've set the schedule as below. As a reminder, we are alternating bi-weekly meetings between 1) thrust level research updates and 2) focused working proposal teams discussion/writing groups. Two thrust level updates are scheduled at each research update meeting, and will need to limit each thrust project to ~25 minutes total (incl. Q/A/Disc). Please focus on the most integrative outcomes to date, key findings/challenges/next steps. Trainees and Research Staff are welcome and encouraged to present/co-present.
