The aim of the Conference is to provide students/fellows with an opportunity to network with advisors/role models from the basic and clinical sciences, medicine, public health, academia and the biopharmaceutical industry. These advisors/role models will encourage students/fellows to complete advanced studies and provide concrete advice and information on available resources, professional opportunities and career paths in biomedical science and other science-related fields. The Conference also enables student/fellow participants to meet, inspire and network with one another. Additionally, each Conference offers breakout and plenary sessions, and a program featuring science resources, including internships, summer programs and after-school activities. Please see attached flyer for more information. There is no fee to attend, but completion of a four-page application is required. Application Deadline: **February 4, 2020.** Please share the attached flyer with eligible students.
