2024 - 2025 MIPS Research Meeting Series
This new research meeting series, initiated by Dr. Craig Levin with the support of MIPS leadership and the trainees council, is designed to foster collaboration and strengthen connections across diverse research labs. By showcasing cutting-edge and ongoing work from MIPS faculty and trainees, the meetings aim to spark collaboration, encourage constructive feedback, and build a dynamic, interactive research community. Each 1-hour seminar (2:00–3:00 PM) features two 20-minute presentations, followed by 10 minutes of discussion. A 30-minute networking session with refreshments (3:00–3:30 PM) offers an additional opportunity for engagement and conversation. Members of related divisions, including RSL, Canary, Nuclear Medicine, and IBIIS, are also welcome to attend. Read more about this initiative.
For questions, please contact: Craig Levin, PhD (cslevin@stanford.edu).
