You'll be happy to learn that BCMP will be covering a larger portion of the costs for the upcoming retreat. The department will now cover the retreat expenses for all individuals who speak or present posters. This includes post-docs and grad students. So I strongly encourage you to work with your lab members and get everyone who isn't speaking to prepare their own poster. This will make their 3 days and 2 nights of talking science in the White Mountains a departmental expense. All faculty with primary appointments in BCMP are eligible.
For individuals who attend but do not present, you will be billed the costs of room and board as in previous years. This will continue to be $150/night or $300 total.
As always, I expect to see all the faculty at the retreat. And now there are no excuses not to have your whole lab in attendance.
