The
UNC DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY TRAINING PROGRAM is proud to announce
its first annual
Developmental Biology Symposium. The central theme of the day
will be the role of signaling during early development. The day’s
events will include seminars from several UNC faculty members,
poster sessions featuring the work of UNC post-doctoral fellows
and graduate students and a series of short presentations of
post-doctoral and graduate student research. The UNC Developmental
Biology Training Program is affiliated with the Carolina Center
for Genome Sciences. |
