Conference Description
The Gordon Research Seminar on Sensory Transduction in Microorganisms is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.
The focus of this meeting is signaling and adaptability. We welcome young scientists from all backgrounds to attend the GRS in Ventura Beach, CA. Here, trainees at the graduate student and post-doctoral fellow levels, from around the globe, will present and discuss the latest developments in the field. This GRS will be held the weekend immediately prior to its associated Gordon Research Conference (GRC). The GRS is a trainee-led forum that is designed to complement the GRC with a focus on guiding trainees on 1) presenting and discussing scientific findings and 2) providing a relaxed and friendly environment for trainees to network within the scientific community.
This seminar will allow trainees the opportunity for networking with their peers from other institutes, presenting and discussing their latest research, building their confidence for the upcoming GRC, recognition for their own outstanding scientific accomplishments, and career building and mentorship.
The 2022 STIM GRS scientific focus will be on topics from the latest research revealing how microorganisms sense and adapt to changing conditions. The GRS will embrace the interdisciplinary aspect of this field with an array of oral and poster presentations from molecular biology, biochemistry, and microbiology fields.
