Meeting history

TWD meetings and workshops, 2013 to 2019

From 2013 to 2019 this domain hosted pages for the NIGMS Training, Workforce Development, and Diversity Program Directors' Meetings and for related postdoctoral workshops. Those events are over. The pages below record what each one was, when and where it took place, and what it focused on, using public sources. We don't reproduce the old programs, speaker lists or photos, and we can't register anyone for anything.
