Genome Integrity & Structural Biology Laboratory
Mission Statement
The theme of the Genome Integrity and Structural Biology Laboratory retreat is to enhance the mentoring and training of trainees and staff through presentation of scientific posters and talks as well as interaction with invited speakers, which include extramural scientists as well as former GISBL members. GISBL members will expand their scientific knowledge and learn about career paths from past trainees and staff at the NIEHS. These efforts will increase interactions and synergize science within GISBL and will also educate trainees and staff about GISBL research and career paths.
