Abstract

Attending and presenting at conferences is a preeminent experience during scientific training. This article provides a trainee's perspective on strategies to promote trainee growth before, during and after scientific meetings, taking the initiatives implemented by the Canadian Society for Immunology (CSI) as an example. A foremost action was the establishment of the Trainee Engagement Committee (TEC) in 2020. The TEC members contribute to the annual symposia by participating in the local organizing committee meetings and organizing trainee-directed events. We propose actions that conference organizers can take to foster the development of the next generation of scientists. In addition, we offer advice to conference presenters on how to craft talks with trainees in mind and to attendees on how to maximize the quality and longevity of conference interactions. We hope this opinion piece evokes reflections and discussions among scientific societies, organizing committees, conference presenters and trainees alike.

学员对科学会议的看法。
参加会议并发表演讲是科学培训期间的重要经历。本文以加拿大免疫学会(CSI)实施的举措为例,从学员的角度阐述了在科学会议之前、期间和之后促进学员成长的策略。其中最重要的一项行动是在 2020 年成立了受训人员参与委员会 (TEC)。TEC 成员通过参加当地组委会会议和组织由受训人员主导的活动,为年度研讨会做出贡献。我们提出了会议组织者可以采取的行动,以促进下一代科学家的发展。此外,我们还为会议发言人提供了如何以受训人员为中心进行演讲的建议,并为与会者提供了如何最大限度地提高会议互动质量和延长互动时间的建议。我们希望这篇观点文章能唤起科学协会、组委会、会议发言人和受训人员的思考和讨论。

期刊介绍: The Australasian Society for Immunology Incorporated (ASI) was created by the amalgamation in 1991 of the Australian Society for Immunology, formed in 1970, and the New Zealand Society for Immunology, formed in 1975. The aim of the Society is to encourage and support the discipline of immunology in the Australasian region. It is a broadly based Society, embracing clinical and experimental, cellular and molecular immunology in humans and animals. The Society provides a network for the exchange of information and for collaboration within Australia, New Zealand and overseas. ASI members have been prominent in advancing biological and medical research worldwide. We seek to encourage the study of immunology in Australia and New Zealand and are active in introducing young scientists to the discipline.
