CVG Stories

The CVG Stories series provides a forum for CVG trainees to meet informally with a CVG faculty member and hear about their journey into science. It is an opportunity to learn about our faculty members' experiences and growth as people, scientists and leaders on campus. The goals are to promote meaningful interactions between faculty and trainees in our community and enhance networking and career development.

CVG Stories are planned and organized by the CVG Trainee Executive Committee (TEC). These events typically include a shared community meal and are announced via the Verge-L email list. For more information, please contact TEC or Jenna DeRario.
