Announcing GENIE: Group of Elegans New Investigators in Europe

We are establishing a European support network for junior C. elegans group leaders. GENIE aims to: (1) promote knowledge and people exchange across European young worm groups; (2) enhance Europe-wide collaborations and short-term mobility; (3) raise the profile and exposure of young European worm groups. To realise these aims we will create a network website and mailing list, organise an annual meeting and make a variety of small travel, exchange and seminar grants available.

BUT first we need to hear from YOU (to get feedback/ideas on what you would like to see on the final website and to coordinate funding applications).

If you are a junior nematode group leader in Europe please visit our temporary signup page at www.worm-genie.eu to leave your details and you will hear from us in the very near future.

Thanks!
GENIE Coordinators: Sophie Jarriault ([email protected]), Peter Meister ([email protected]) and Richard Poole ([email protected])
