Hilde Mangold Symposium

The Society for Developmental Biology created the Hilde Mangold Symposium in order to highlight the great work of postdoctoral researchers at the SDB Annual Meeting.  The presenters are selected from submitted abstracts and chosen by a committee of their peers. The session is also chaired by postdocs.  The best postdoctoral presenter is chosen by faculty judges and receives a travel award of up to $1500 to a meeting or course of their choice.
