Pint of Postdoc
Grab your favorite happy hour beverage or snack and join us the 4th Thursday of every month for an informal discussion with two Yale postdocs/ARS. Each month we cover a different theme for the talks. All presentations will be followed by 5 minutes of questions and there will be an opportunity for additional networking/socializing after the talks!

We are always looking for speakers. This is a great opportunity to practice communicating your work to a broad science audience in a low-pressure setting. Interested in being an invited speaker? Email the Professional Development Committee Co-ordinators at laura.santos@yale.edu and sadaf.ghorbani@yale.edu.
