SLAAM Seminars

SLAAM seminars are online research talks presented by postdoctoral scholars in soft matter, biological physics, and related disciplines. The series aims to provide a forum for a diverse set of stellar speakers early in their careers and opportunities for them to interact with researchers at all career stages. 

Initiated by the University of California, Merced, Department of Physics and the NSF-CREST Center for Cellular and Biomolecular Machines, the series is now organized by a multi-institutional team and is attended by a geographically and intellectually broad audience. 

Organizers: Daniel Beller (Johns Hopkins), Kinjal Dasbiswas (UC Merced), Isabella Graf (EMBL), Suraj Shankar (U Michigan), Alex Tayar (Weizmann), Haicen Yue (U Vermont)
Graduate Student Discussion Leaders: Jane B.D.M. Garcia (Johns Hopkins), Abhinav Kumar (UC Merced), Nima Mirzaeian (Michigan State), Suraj Sahu (UC Merced)
