DRRC's Postdoc Alumni Event

The DRRC invited our postdoctoral fellow alumni to return to Evanston for a day of networking and collaboration with fellow DRRC postdoc alumni. Whether in academia or industry, we welcomed them to attend and reconnect with the DRRC and its affiliates. We organized research talks, a discussion of post-DRRC career paths, and plenty of opportunities to socialize.
