GRADUATE STUDENT TRAVEL
Planning to travel and present your work at a meeting? If so, you may be eligible to receive funds from The Graduate School to cover part of your travel.
Conference: Dr. Gregory P Domin Graduate Research Conference
"This conference was an excellent opportunity for me to present my work. It helped me to boil down my research to layman’s terms and covey my findings in an understandable way. This experience was unique, as the majority of the attendees did not have a human immunology background. Overall the experience has helped me to redefine my presentation skills while emphasizing the impact of the study."
Conference: Annual Meeting of American Society of Nephrology
"It is a great honor for me to present my project “Complete Pik3c3 Deletion in Renal Proximal Tubule Cells Causes Acute Kidney Injury Leading to Chronic Kidney Disease” at ASN. I am really appreciative of the support from The Graduate School, The Cellular Biology and Anatomy Department, and my mentor for giving me this opportunity to share my work with other researchers."
Conference: Society for Neuroscience Conference
"This was my second time to attending a SFN Conference. Chicago is really a beautiful city. I presented a poster on my project title “Neuron-derived estrogen is critical for neuroprotective astrocyte activation after ischemic injury to the brain." It’s really a good opportunity for me to present my work of this year to other attendees. Through discussions and questions with conference attendees, I received some very valuable suggestions which will make my study stronger."
Conference: Experimental Biology
"I presented my abstract entitled “Obesity-induced metabolic and vascular dysregulation:
Implication of arginase” in an oral session at the American Society for Pharmacology
and Experimental Therapeutics Division for Cardiovascular Pharmacology Trainee Showcase.
I was awarded 3rd place for Best Oral Presentation. It was a great experience for
me as I got thoughtful recommendations from visitors. I gratefully acknowledge The
Graduate School's support."
Conference: International Society of Nephrology Conference
"As my first international conference as a graduate student, the experience at the ISN conference in Melbourne was outstanding. I had the opportunity to present my research at this conference in a moderated poster session on AKI-CKD transition. The moderated poster session was exciting and unique because it gave each presenting author an allotted time to present their work to a larger audience with similar research interests."
Conference: American Association of Cancer Research Annual Conference
"Attending AACR meeting gave me one fascinating opportunity to visualize the panorama of vibrant cancer research being conducting around the world. During the meeting, I gave an oral and poster presentation. I was able to meet many great scientists working in the same field and discuss my work with them. I received many helpful suggestions from them. For all of this, I’d like to thank The Graduate School for supporting my trip. "
