Postdoc Seminar Series
Beginning in June 2005, Postdoctoral Enhancement Programs initiated a seminar series for postdoctoral fellows and associates at the University. The series aims to provide the postdoctoral community with information and resources above and beyond that provided through individual departments and principal investigators (PIs). Seminars generally take place from 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm in Jordan Hall 2-A-B-C. Below is information on past and future seminars. Where available, links have been provided to materials presented by speakers (*.pdf). If you are a post-doctoral fellow or associate and would like to suggest a seminar topic, please e-mail postdoc-at-virginia.edu.
