Faculty Lounge

Informal monthly faculty gathering, which we call our "Faculty Lounge" during which a specific scientific theme is discussed over a glass of wine. We believe that such gatherings will yield new and fruitful interactions among researchers in the biological and medical sciences at Yale, improve communication and collaboration among research groups and our understanding of the cross talk between organs and systems and, possibly, our prospects of obtaining continued funding.

Our Faculty Lounge takes place the last Friday of each month, from 3pm to 4pm, in room SHM C-103, on the first floor of the Sterling Hall of Medicine. Former Faculty Lounge leaders were Drs Richard Flavell, Haifan Lin, Anton Bennett, Themis Kyriakides, William Sessa, Jack Elias, Arthur Horwich, Sandy Wolin, Paul Lombroso, Sidney Altman, Martin Saunders, Peter Cresswell, David Stern, Gary Rudnick, Yung-Chi Cheng, Carolyn Macica, Dianqing Wu, Lloyd Cantley, Michael Caplan, Joseph Madri, Jonathan Bogan, Li Wen, Diane Krause, Philip Askenase, Derek Toomre and Valentina Greco.

Our Faculty Lounge is supported by the Office of Cooperative Research:
