Even though this year’s Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting was entirely online, it remained an important opportunity for young scientists to share their work with the world. Picower postdocs and graduate students presented numerous research projects at the conference.
“I always encourage my students and postdocs to present their work at SfN and other meetings. Their careers will depend on not just doing science but also communicating science,” said Professor Earl Miller. “I think everyone wishes it was an in-person meeting but nonetheless, it is an opportunity for the students and postdocs to present their work. Besides, there is a lot of cool work going on in the lab. Why should we keep that to ourselves?”
