The Torrey Pines Mesa Postdoctoral Training Consortium (Burnham, TSRI, UCSD) is pleased to offer the 3rd Annual San Diego Lab Management Symposium.

This two day workshop is a practical guide for postdocs and junior faculty on managing their research programs while balancing the demands of a new tenure track position. The sessions will be lead by experts in the field and faculty from the contributing institutions.  Each session will have a formal presentation, followed by Q&A.  In addition, several breaks, one hour lunches, and a happy hour with several postdoc associations have been included in the schedule in order to provide networking opportunities.
