KDS followed the 'original trilogy' to Savannah, Georgia for SfRBM's Annual Meeting in November. Abhi, Dalia, and Mia ALL won abstract/travel awards, and Abhi stole the show with a podium presentation and a featured poster! We can still smell the pralines!

  2023 SfRBM-SfRRI Annual Meeting  

KDS and Mia journeyed to Punta del Este, Uruguay in November to attend the 2023 SfRBM Annual Meeting. The southernmost point in all of Uruguay offered great science, spectacular views, good eats, and was a fantastic adventure!
