Cardiopulmonary Research-in-Progress
Seminar Series
Lunch discussion with Dr.
Shaun R. Coughlin, UCSF, Evans Lectureship
2003
The Cardiopulmonary Research-in-Progress Seminar
Series was established in fall of 2002. The series aims to highlight current
cardiopulmonary research and provide a venue for interaction and discussion
for an audience of both clinical and basic researchers.
The talks are held on Thursdays at 4 p.m. We feature
Stanford speakers, speakers from area institutions, and visiting scholars
from research institutions nationwide and abroad. Visiting speakers spend
the day at Stanford, meeting with colleagues with common research interests,
and we host a lunch discussion with graduate students, fellows, and research
associates from the group.
Lab Meetings, and Journal Club
The Rabinovitch/Bland lab has weekly research meetings
(usually Mondays at 9:00 am), where laboratory members present and discuss
their latest research findings. This is a great forum for brainstorming
and troubleshooting. In addition, the group holds bi-weekly Journal Club
meetings, in which students, post-docs and faculty participate in reviewing
current research papers from the scientific literature.
Unless noted otherwise, seminars are held
on Thursdays at 4 pm in CCSR room 4105.
