What is it? SLB is pleased to offer this ongoing program designed to support local discussion groups (e.g. journal clubs, work-in-progress sessions), dedicated to the broad field of leukocyte biology. We encourage you to form a group and sign up for our Pizza and Pub Program.
SLB will provide $200 per year to local groups to be used at their regular meetings. This can buy you a lot of pizza! It can also buy a lot of interesting discussion and interaction about the exciting world of leukocyte biology.
To qualify, your group needs to have at least 10 people, of which at least two must be PIs who are SLB members, and one postdoc/student who will join SLB as a new member.
To apply, simply send us an email (slb@faseb.org) with the names and email addresses of the members of your group, indicate the two individuals who are current members, provide a brief description of group/journal club/discuusion group, and furnish a paid application for a student membership (you may download this off the SLB web site, www.leukocytebiology.org). Feel free to sign up more than just one student. The more, the merrier!
Who is in? Discussion groups from University of Iowa, the Mayo Clinic, and the University of Michigan were the first to sign up for SLB's Pizza and Pub Program. Recent additions include The New Jersey Medical and Dental School, Kansas State University and University of Nebraska Medical Center!
