Next Generation Seminar (NextGen)

Admission to NextGen is included with SDGS registration; however, SDGS registration is required.
NextGen will be held on Thursday, April 1, 2021 from 1:00pm - 5:00pm. Following the presentations, a social mixer for all participants will be held. All Faculty and SDGS attendees are encouraged to attend the social mixer to meet students and fellows from NextGen.

The Next Generation Seminar provides a mechanism for students and fellows with interest in the glycosciences to discuss their current research in a highly stimulating, non-intimidating environment. The model is based on the Gordon Research Seminar Series.

NextGen is only for students, fellows, and postdocs. All attendees are expected to submit an abstract. Young investigators with the support of leading scientists from the SDGS will select abstracts for 10-minute oral presentations.

If you are interested in delivering an oral presentation at NextGen, please submit an abstract to sdgs@health.ucsd.edu. Abstracts are limited to 250 words.
