Introduction

The University of Minnesota NIH Training Grant Symposium is a day-long event designed to highlight new advances at the interface of chemistry and biology. On behalf of the graduate students who have organized this symposium, it is our pleasure to invite you to participate in this year's event. This is the fourth year that the symposium has been organized by students. Our primary goal is to facilitate interactions between graduate students and distinguished faculty. 

We have attempted to invite speakers, students and faculty from a diverse area of research. In part, this has been to accentuate the new Chemical Biology Initiative at the University of Minnesota, which highlights interdisciplinary research in the areas of Medicinal Chemistry, Biotechnology, and Biocatalysis. In addition, we hope to make our symposium a showcase for all research related to chemistry and biology and to expand our perspective of ongoing interdisciplinary research
in these fields. 

The day's events will include several talks about research in chemical biology, student poster sessions, lunch, and a social hour at the end of the day for speakers and attendees to meet.
