The Science in Progress (SIP) Talks feature research presentations by senior graduate students and postdoctorals to the immunology community. SIP Talks happen in person or via Zoom and graduates, fellows, and faculty are welcome to attend.  The sessions will take place every other week and weekly announcements will continue to be sent out through the Immunology email list.  

Please note: Graduate Student SIPs are on Wednesdays at 12-1PM PT. See locations below. Stanford graduate students, postdocs, and faculty may contact lhansen@stanford.edu or toryen@stanford.edu for more info. Lunch provided.

Postdoctoral SIPs are hosted via Zoom or in person. See below for details.
