Sixth Annual Speed Networking Event for Students and Early Career Professionals

Please join us for a fun, informal evening of making connections with some of the leading professionals in our field.  Whether you are currently on the job hunt, seeking advice about professional growth, or simply hoping to learn about possible career paths, this event is an excellent opportunity to expand both your knowledge base and your network of contacts.  The format is exactly what the name suggests: with enough time to make a connection and learn something new, “mentees” will interact with rotating groups of “mentors” from a wide range of career and scientific backgrounds.  

The event is open to all students and Early Career professionals, who can participate as “mentees”.  Early Career professionals also have the opportunity to join our group of experienced professionals as “mentors”. Walk-ins are welcome, but to guarantee a spot, we encourage you to pre-register here. It's free to attend!

The speed networking will be followed by open networking and an assortment of hors d'oeuvres and beverages.  This allows the students and the mentors of their selected discipline to have extended conversations after their speed-mentoring introductions.
