Special Events Saturday, May 22 Trainee Professional Development Day • 9:00 AM–4:00 PM • Bayside & Linkside Conference Centers The Trainee Professional Development Day is an entire day devoted to scientific and career development activities for trainees. The day consists of a keynote address, an activity consisting of one-on-one blitz discussions, and a series of workshops on various topics. The goal of the Trainee Professional Development Day is to allow the next generation of biological rhythm researchers to learn from and interact with faculty members in a more informal and intimate setting. Trainees should attend the workshops they preselected during the registration process. Welcome Reception • 7:00–9:00 PM, Grand Lawn In case of inclement weather, the reception will be held in the Azalea Ballroom. SOCIETY FOR RESEARCH ON BIOLOGICAL RHYTHMS 3 Sunday, May 23 Meet the Professors • 10:30–11:00 AM daily • Magnolia A • All trainees welcome to attend (See “Meeting at a Glance” pages xx–xx for more details) Meet the Professor Sessions are meant to provide trainees (students and postdocs) the opportunity to interact with experienced faculty members in the field and to foster scholarly conversation. Each day a number of faculty researchers (see lists below) will make themselves available to discuss with trainees, in a dedicated room of the conference center. Any trainee interested in meeting these investigators can go to the meeting location (to be announced, check for signs) and be part in this informal gathering.
