We are thrilled to host the Fourth Annual Slam Event on Thursday, April 9 at 12:00 pm ET.   Speakers, titles and abstracts are locked-in and details will be forthcoming.   The event will be a wonderful opportunity for our Student & Early Career Presenters to share a brief 3 minute talk with you about their research. We would love for you to attend to see what the next generation of leaders has been up to!
