A number of the UCR Nematology department faculty and lab personnel recently attended The 63rd Annual Meeting of the Society of Nematologists, August 4th-August 9th in Park City, Utah. 

The theme of this year's meeting was Nematodes Under Stress and about 200 attendees were able to meet with industry vendors, join in plenary sessions as a group with open Q&A, & attend individual paper sessions for presentations of current research. Students in attendance were also able to take part in workshops to learn about writing grants, were able to present their research in poster sessions, and were invited to attend socials to get to know their peers from other institutions.
