FAQ

Who can register to attend the symposium?

Any Postdoc or Associate Research Scientist at Yale can attend the symposium.

To foster a welcoming environment for Postdocs to network and present, aside from a selected few guests, no PI/faculty members will be in attendance, nor will any graduate or undergraduate students.

Where is the symposium?

The symposium will be held in OC Marsh Lecture Hall. OC Marsh Lecture Hall is located on the first floor of the Yale Science Building (YSB) on Science Hill (260 Whitney Ave). Enter via southeast corner of YSB across from Kline Geology Laboratory onto the ground floor and walk up the stairs, or enter by the Kline Biology Tower lobby directly to the first floor. Multiple Yale Shuttle stops provide access to Science Hill.

Who will be presenting?

Any Postdoc or Associate Research Scientist (or equivalent level) can submit an abstract to be considered for presentation. We only ask that you are affiliated to Yale and that you present a project done at Yale (or in a Yale-associated structure). We also welcome presentations that can be of major interest to the community (tools, services, experiences, community improvement, etc).

How can I contact the organizers to sponsor the event, obtain information, or ask for help?

Please email the YPA symposium committee co-chairs,  Jay (dhananjay.bhaskar@yale.edu) and Pratap (pratap.vydyam@yale.edu).
