HILS Life Beyond the Labs: "Keeping the Life Sciences Lively"
Spring 2008 PhD Student Event Proposals
HILS is excited to present its third annual call for Student Event Proposals.
HILS will fund as many as 3 student-organized events during the Spring 2008 OR Fall 2008 terms that conform to the following criteria:
- The events must feature topics, concerns, or themes related to the life sciences (biological or biomedical).
- Eligible event formats include seminars, panel discussions, symposia, conferences, lectures, films/multimedia, and other formats (e.g., lab
open houses). Creative ideas are encouraged!
- Events must be held at Harvard (on the Cambridge campus or at the Longwood Medical Area), and must include receptions or similar
opportunities for HILS student/faculty/staff mixing.
- Student organizing teams must include participants from at least two HILS programs; the organizing teams must work with at least one faculty
advisor of their choice from a HILS program. Submitted proposals must be signed by all student team members and by the HILS faculty advisor(s).
- At least one speaker or featured participant must be affiliated with Harvard. However, non-Harvard speakers, distinguished guests, and
attendees are encouraged to participate.
- The maximum funding award will be $3,000 per approved event. Deadline for proposal submission is Friday, March 7 2008 at 5:00 p.m.
Proposals will be reviewed and approved by HILS program staff and faculty members from the HILS Coordinating Committee.
