Postdoctoral Fall Symposium, Poster Competition, and Awards Ceremony
September 23, 2016
The 4th Annual Postdoctoral Symposium and Poster Competition was held on Friday, September 23rd at the FSU College of Medicine Atrium. This event was in celebration of the national postdoctoral awareness week and is a wonderful opportunity for you to meet your fellow postdoctoral colleagues! A big thank you to all that came out to participate and compete in the 4th Annual Fall Postdoctoral Symposium and Poster Competition. It was a wonderful event for all involved and a special thank you to our organizers, Fanny Caroline Liu (Chemistry) and Audrey Grockowiak (Magnet Lab). Look for presentation slides in our archive at the OPDA website. Here’s a quick link to photos from the event.
Please share with your departments and friends! – decorate the websites across campus to increase the electronic presence of postdoctoral scholars at FSU.
If you have 5 minutes, here is a link to a feedback survey from the event. As always, we welcome your suggestions in developing future postdoctoral programming.
