<strong style="font-family: arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Present your research</strong><br>
<span style="font-family: arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During the workshop you will get the chance to present your research in a 2-3 minute elevator pitch using a single presentation slide. This will facilitate networking opportunities
and help connect you with potential collaborators. If you want to present you must submit a presentation slide (see details below).</span><br>

we aim to learn from each other by discussing topics that are relevant to being a Junior PI. Examples: Grant writing, hiring and supervising, setting up collaborations, leading a team, and the role of social networks/media in maximizing research impact. Use
the submission form to suggest topics relevant to you. Register your interest in attending the lunch during slide submission (details below).</span><br>
