The Second Annual CBMM Retreat, Tuesday., April 19th through Wednesday, April 20, 2016, is at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT. This event is an important opportunity for the CBMM Community to come together, present current research and discuss ongoing and/or potential collaborations. The annual retreat is also a NSF requirement of the CBMM STC grant award; NSF requires all CBMM Investigators and researchers, postdocs or grad students funded by CBMM to attend. We also invite any participants currently working on CBMM research projects, though not funded by CBMM, to attend.
