Bridging Gaps in Venom Research: From Ecology and Evolution to Socio-Economic Impacts (Gordon Research Conference)

This Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on venom research will be held in conjunction with the Venom Evolution, Function, and Biomedical Applications Gordon Research Seminar (GRS).

The goals for the conference are to define key areas of this emerging field, establish collaborations to advance the unique perspectives to be gained from an interdisciplinary approach to venom research, and evaluate challenges and opportunities for venom biomedical research and drug development. The conference chairs are making significant efforts to invite a culturally, ethnically, and gender diverse group of 150 established and early career faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students to the meeting. The program will foster a community of experts focused on complementary and integrative topics in venom research.

Information about the meeting may be found on the Gordon Research Conference website: grc.org/venom-evolution-function-and-biomedical-applications-conference/2022.

The application deadline for this meeting was July 10, 2022. You may still submit an application, which may be considered by the conference chair if there is still room available.

Funding for this conference was made possible (in part) by 1 R13 AT010975-01A1 from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH).
