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. Lunch will be provided!

The series is open to all in the Harvard community but is geared towards undergraduate researchers, post-bac scholars and early-stage research assistants. High school students are welcome to attend, but any attendees under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian and their parent or guardian must complete the Harvard University Youth Protection Form. Registration is required.
