RAEL (Red de Aracnología Emergente Latina) Happy Hour

Friday June 25, 5:00 - 6:00 pm EDT

RAEL is a network designed to connect Latin American arachnologists and facilitate communication and mentoring of emerging students and researchers. Join RAEL representatives Fedra Bollatti and Ignacio Escalante Meza for a brief presentation about the network followed by Q&A and general discussion with other founding members of RAEL. This will be a great opportunity to follow up on some of the topics from the DEI panel

Sobre RAEL: 

Somos un grupo que surge con el objetivo de facilitar la comunicación entre aracnólogos y aracnólogas de Latinoamérica. Teniendo en cuenta que investigar en América Latina no siempre es un recorrido fácil, sobre todo para estudiantes, desde la RAEL nos propusimos centralizar las oportunidades de estudio y financiamiento a lo largo del mundo; generar un espacio que facilite mentorías para estudiantes en diferentes niveles de formación, así como promover el intercambio de ideas y el crecimiento profesional de sus miembros mediante simposios, conferencias y presentaciones públicas.
