Academic Year (2008 - 2009)
Clinical Scientist Dinner Seminars
MSTP SPONSORED EVENT:
An informal evening meeting organized
by the MSTP 1st Year Ph.D. students is held once a month from
September - April. At each meeting, dinner is provided and a member
of the Stony Brook/Brookhaven/Cold Spring Harbor faculty makes
a presentation to the students. Since only MSTP Fellows are invited
to attend, these meetings represent unique opportunities for students
to interact closely and intensely with potential mentors.
Faculty
appreciate the opportunity to discuss their results in an intimate
forum with a group of talented and motivated students. Approximately
half the presenting faculty are drawn from the clinical research
pool to give students the opportunity to interact with individuals
engaged in the type of research they may elect to pursue later
in their careers. This facilitiates discussion of the combined
medicine / science academic career path from a wide variety of
perspectives.

be advised that all students are expected to attend this without exception
unless clinical duties (3rd and 4th year medical students only) preclude
it. Our ability and interest in maintaining activities like this, is
dependent on the level of interest you display.
The Program Director would like to see more than 90% attendance at these
meetings. Occasional conflict is to be expected; but it should be the
rule to attend unless there is an unavoidable conflict (such as illness,
out-of-town, or other formal engagement).
