Rocky Mountain Regional Node Meeting

Zeynep, Amanda, and their students will train Node members and their students on the annotation scheme for the Tamarisk Beetle Project. In-person attendees will also get a chance to tour the Colorado Department of Agriculture’s Palisade Insectary to be introduced to the subject of the annotation project.

Contact Shan, Zeynep, or Amanda for more details. 

Midwest Regional Node Meeting

1.5 day event with student talks and faculty implementation talks. We will also have a professional development activity of some sort for the faculty. Potential ideas that have been proposed are talking about wet lab implementation, incorporating R more into courses, genetics in the context of society, and/or more training on the wasp and parrot projects.

Contact Jenny or Sarah for more details.

MN/IA/Dakotas Regional Node Meeting

We are holding another student-centered research symposium like the one we held two years ago. We plan to ask local researchers to come give talks and have a student research poster session and lunch.

Contact Kellie, Andy, or Paula for more details.

Southeast Regional Node Meeting

Join us for the upcoming Southeast GEP Regional Node Meeting, where undergraduate students will have the opportunity to present their genomics research to a larger academic audience. This event will highlight student-led research projects, showcasing the hard work and dedication of our next generation of scientists. Our guest speaker for the event is Logan Cohen, a first-year PhD student at The University of Alabama and Director of the newly formed GEP Advanced Research Lab. Logan will share insights into students’ critical role in furthering this field. Logan’s presentation will also cover opportunities for student involvement in advanced research projects and the tools used in the GEP lab. The event promises to be a fantastic platform for students to gain experience in presenting scientific work and to engage with peers, faculty, and experts in genomics. Whether you’re an undergraduate researcher, faculty member, or a genomics enthusiast, this meeting will be a valuable opportunity to exchange knowledge and celebrate student achievements.
