    10. Grown-Up Science Fair

    Conferences! What are they? Why do we go? Why are there so many different kinds? Get an inside look into science conferences told from the point of view of our classmates.  It is an essential part of the graduate school experience and a big part of a science career. Join us while we unpack the fun, the not so fun and the interesting parts of the science conferences we went to this year. Yes there is a lot of free food and alcohol involved. Yes there are bosses who dance. What other secrets do conferences hold? Tune into Ryan taking on two conferences this summer, one in Canada and one on the East Coast; Lexus going to her rival state; and Sarah going across seas to talk about worms!
