Events

The DRB Program plans a number of recurring events aimed at maintaining connections across our dynamic community. Monthly student research and career development iniatives are combined with program-wide recruitment and networking events to allow trainees to share updates on their research progress, meet new collaborators and connect with colleagues and friends in a supportive environment. Most events are open to all current and prospective DRB community members. DRB Program degree candidates and affiliated students are strongly encouraged to participate in the majority of these trainee designed-and-run activies.
