The Pharmacology Program holds a retreat each year in the Spring -- usually two days at a country inn.  Members of the Program gather for a series of informal scientific talks and poster presentations by students and postdocs, describing their research activities. The retreat also provides a relaxed setting for social and sporting activities that provide graduate students with an opportunity to get better acquainted with postdocs and faculty members in the Program.

All Pharmacology students attend and participate in the Scientific Program of the Retreat. Students in years 03-05 present research talks while all other students present posters describing their research.  Students from other programs who are doing thesis research in labs of Pharmacology Program Faculty are also invited to attend.
