Journeys in Neuro is a summer series exploring career and training trajectories at different stages in academia. Each event features lightning talks from a graduate student, postdoc, professor and/or staff member sharing how they got to their current position and what it looks like on a day to day basis—followed by an extended Q&A session. Two other talks are taking place on Weds. July 16th and Weds. August 13th in Longwood.

The series is open to all in the Harvard community but geared in particular towards high school or undergraduate researchers, post-bac scholars and early stage research assistants. Please note these events are in-person only.
