REGISTRATION NOW OPEN (DEADLINE JULY 10TH)

DESCRIPTION:

The Frontiers and Careers in Nuclear and Particle Physics Workshop (F&C) 
is aimed towards bringing together grad students and postdocs in the 
field of Nuclear and Particle physics to discuss research and career 
perspectives in a friendly environment. Participants will have the 
opportunity to present their work, develop skills, networking with 
peers, and interact with a panel of experienced faculty members and 
physicists in preparation for their future careers. Since its inception 
two years ago, participants in the workshop have included members from 
various universities and national labs all over the world, including the 
U.S. and Europe alike. The workshop will begin with a reception at 6:00 
pm on August 4th, 2016 followed by student talks. There will also be 
plenary talks and networking sessions for the subsequent two days. 
During the workshop, attendees will be granted the chance to speak with 
leading physicists and esteemed faculty members regarding vital 
interview skills and effective building of curriculum vitae. 
Participants are highly encouraged to prepare a 15-20 minutes oral 
presentation on their work. The workshop is very close to Gordon 
conference and participants are highly encouraged to participate to the
