Dear SEA-PHAGES colleagues,

Jordan and I are giving the virtual poster symposium format a try at UCLA, and we'd be so glad to have you and your students attend! The symposium has 8 posters about phage bioinformatics research, as well as research by other students in our department.

You can read the attached flyer for more details. The basics:

UCLA Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics Poster Symposium
Friday, Dec 11, 2-4pm PST
Padlet (Posters, Abstracts, and Video Abstracts):  https://padlet.com/mimg_undergradresearch/vtbd94431ogqvdf8
Zoom (for short presentations and Q&A): https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEqcO6pqjkqHNcwzZc8c4_YJHNaEXU5G4NA

Note that you have two ways to interact: you can chat with the presenters on Zoom, and you can also leave comments and questions asynchronously on the Padlet itself.

This is our first time trying this format out, but we're optimistic that it will showcase the students' work well and give everyone opportunities to learn and engage about phage research.

Please let me know if you have questions!
