[Neuropostdocs] NSP Open House

[Christian Beaulé]

Hi Everyone,

You probably received Sam Besher's e-mail regarding the upcoming SNP 
Open House where the department will be trying to convince potential 
graduate students that neuroscience at UIUC is the best option there 
is! If you haven't received the e-mail, I'm copying it at the bottom of 
this e-mail.

One way to make sure that the best students decide to choose 
neuroscience at UIUC is to show them how wonderful, dynamic, and 
implicated the postdocs are in the program :-))

Here are some very little things that you can do to make a difference:
1- Participate in the poster session
2- Attend the reception (RSVP, see link in Sam's e-mail)
3- Attend the banquet (RSVP, see link)
4- Talk to the prospective students! Interact with them! The NSP 
program will appreciate to hear your comments (good or bad) on the 
students.

So, get in touch with Sam, RSVP using the web link, and get involved!

Christian
