Monthly Dinner & Seminar
2010
Monthly seminar meetings have
been an integral part of the activities of the Princeton
Local Section. Seminars touch on many aspects of
chemistry, engineering, medicine and materials and are
usually planned with a wide audience in mind. These
gatherings enhance our knowledge and educate us in fields
that might be different than our own. In the past, the
Princeton Section has hosted prominent scientists as well as those who
have gone on to other fields . See who spoke in years
past, then plan to join us for an interesting
presentation, constructive conversation, and a great dinner! |
