Attended The 31st Annual Protein Society Symposium in Montréal

Had a great time learning about work being done in the field at the 31st Annual Protein Society Symposium in Montréal! Met some great people and enjoyed exhibiting my work while presenting a poster at the conference. Got some great feedback on my project and am looking forward to planning new experiments.

 

Montréal is a beautiful city and I can’t wait to go back!

 

Here are some pictures from the trip!

Attended the 2016 MDF Research & Writing Conference

I attended the 2016 MDF Research and Writing Conference at the beautiful Safety Harbor Resort in Clearwater, Fl.

The conference was very informative where I was lucky to have served as the chair of the Biomedical Sciences Panel.

A huge thank you to my panelists Lindsay Elvir, Amanda Dossat, and Katherine Wright!

Happy to have represented Florida State University!

Serving as the Biomedical Science Panel Chair for the 2016 MDF Research & Writing Conference

I am happy to announce that I will be serving as a Panel Chair at the 2016 MDF Research & Writing Conference held in Tampa, Florida. It is hosted by the Florida Education fund. I will be representing the Life Sciences at the conference and the theme of my panel will be on writing a manuscript for submission and publication in the sciences.

 

I have recruited and assembled various panelists that will speak about their experiences in writing and publishing as well as provide overall etiquette on the preparation of a scientific journal article.

 

So very excited for this wonderful opportunity!
