Subject: Gordon Research Seminar in Ecology for Grad. Students and Post-docs.
This message is to bring to your attention a Graduate Research Seminar (GRS) this July (5th and 6th) in conjunction with the Gordon Research Conference (GRC), Metabolic Basis of Ecology (July 6th-11th). This yearÂ’s conference looks to be outstanding; a list of speakers can be found at: http://www.grc.org/programs.aspx?year=2008&program=metbasis The purpose of the GRS is to facilitate interaction among graduate students and postdocs the weekend prior to the GRC. Also, given the high caliber of many of the GRC conferees, grad student and postdoc involvement has been limited in the past. A key goal of the GRS is to prepare young scientists for greater participation during the GRC. Eight grad students and/or postdocs will give talks during that weekend on topics ranging from dynamics at the cellular, organismal, and population levels to the flow of energy and materials in communities and landscapes in a format identical to the GRC. More information can be found here: http://www.grc.org/programs.aspx?year=2008&program=grad_metab FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT REGISTRATION AND TRAVEL! SPACE AND FUNDS ARE LIMITED! There is room for only 35! APPLICATION DEADLINE: JUNE 14TH We look forward to meeting you in beautiful Maine this summer! Sincerely, Puni Jeyasingh & Chuck Price
