PSA General Meeting

Would you like to get more involved & help us to build a stronger community among UCSF postdocs? Join us for the PSA General Meeting which is open to the entire Postdoc community at UCSF!

You get the chance to meet current board members as well as other postdocs. This is our monthly platform for postocs to share ideas for postdocs initiatives, bring up concerns, ask questions, etc. If you are committed to serve on the board and lead in a specific role (there is always roles we need to fill!), we will officially welcome new board members during this meeting as well.

Details: 1st Monday of the month, 1:30 - 2 pm. If a holiday, this meeting will be held the following day (Tuesday). A reminder for this meeting will be sent out to all post docs the prior week. The default ZOOM link is: https://ucsf.zoom.us/j/93321754550?pwd=TTlGQk4xVVJSS2liTmVBMVZzQjJlUT09
