NHGRI Research Training and Career Development Annual Meeting

总结

Summary The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) provides support for trainees from the undergraduate to the post-doctoral level in the fields of genome sciences, medicine and ethical, legal and social implications. The annual Research Training and Career Development meeting is a venue for NHGRI trainees to present their research and learn about other research and programs, to network and begin to develop collaborations with other trainees and faculty, and gain experience of attending professional scientific conferences (this will be the first professional meeting for some trainees). Duke University was selected to be the coordinating center for the annual training meeting (#1R13HG011814-01). Duke will provide continued support for this excellent annual event for trainees and strive to enhance the impact, learning efficiency and networking opportunities with new and innovative technologies to address the changing landscape, in part brought on by COVID19. This administrative supplemental request will provide travel support for advisors to attend the meeting and for trainees that do not have travel funds available through their award (Fellowship awardees)
