Th
Poster sessions provide scientists the opportunity to share the design, methods, and findings from their experiments.
Every spring GEMS assembles speakers to present the latest thinking in topics of interest. 
At the Fall GEMS meeting new investigators present their research and awards are given to the best poster and platform presentation.
