IMP Retreat
The IMP Program is the interdepartmental home for 62 graduate students and 60 faculty who contribute to make Emory a major force in immunological research.
The IMP community also counts 64 postdoctoral fellows working in IMP faculty-led labs.
This first retreat will promote networking and exchange of ideas, and set the tone for what we envision to be a flagship annual event for the entire IMP community.
- Registration is open to IMP faculty and graduate students, as well as postdoctoral fellows and graduate students in other programs doing research in IMP faculty labs.
- Cost share: $25 per attendee will be charged to faculty.
- Advanced registration is strongly encouraged, to secure rooms (deadline: July 24, 2019).
- On-site registration will be available.
