The Society of Postdoctoral Scholars at the University of Kentucky is hosting a symposium to feature the work of postdoctoral scholars in Kentucky. The event will feature a keynote presentation by UK’s Vice President for Research Dr. Lisa Cassis as well as several oral presentations and a poster session. The symposium will allow for the exchange of ideas across a broad range of fields, and abstract submissions are welcome from any discipline. Postdocs from Kentucky are especially encouraged to submit abstracts for oral presentations and poster presentations. Graduate students are also welcome to present posters. The event is open to anyone interested.

There is no charge to present or attend.  Food and drinks for lunch and coffee breaks will be provided.
