Future Seminars:

Focus Group in Reproduction, Development and Cancer.

 During the fall and spring semesters of the academic year on Friday mornings  a Focus Group in Reproduction, Development and Cancer is held from 9:00am-10:00am in the McDonnell Sciences Building Conference Room 785. This is a research conference in which postdoctoral fellows, clinical fellows, junior faculty and students present their research work in progress. This is an informal meeting and questions and advice is encouraged. This time slot is also reserved for seminars in our visiting professorship in research. We invite 2-3 basic or clinical scientists from outside Washington University to speak each year.
