6th Annual UCI Postdoctoral Scholar Research Symposium

Research transforming the world: from bench to broader impacts

UCI | April 14, 2022

Following huge success from previous years, the UCI Postdoctoral Association and the UCI Graduate Division are proud to host the 6th Annual UCI Postdoctoral Scholar Research Symposium.


The symposium will feature talks from postdocs from across campus and other universities.

Take the opportunity to practice presenting your research to a broader audience! Be well prepared for potential job interviews and use the occasion to increase your scientific network and find future collaborations.

We welcome oral and poster abstract submissions from UCI and other academic institutions.

All members of the UCI community and members of local academic or BioTech institutions are encouraged to attend as well!

Keynote Lecture:

Maria Rebolleda-Gomez, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor, Ecology & Evolutionary Biology
School of Biological Sciences at University of California, Irvine

Unculturable majority: lessons from microbes.

In this talk, I will look to some of the smallest (but oldest) organisms
on earth for advice on my own life and career. I will parallel some of
what we have learned from these amazing creatures to the lessons I
have accumulated during a career as an interdisciplinary, curious, and
sometimes unfocused scientist. I am interested in learning about
microbial lives within complex communities and the roles of
interactions, diversity, and context-dependency on the function of
these communities.
