Dear fellow graduate students,
As most of you are aware, the Plant Science Graduate Student Association (PSGSA) will be hosting the 34th Annual Plant Science Graduate Student Symposium at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, MB on March 16-17, 2018.
The theme for this year’s symposium is “Cultivating the Field of Big Data”. The event will host student presentations, 3-4 keynote speakers, a panel discussion and a variety of networking events. We are inviting graduate students from the University of Manitoba, University of Saskatchewan, North Dakota State University as well as other neighboring universities in Canada and the United States.
We highly encourage fellow graduate students to attend the upcoming symposium as this event will be a great opportunity to improve research skills, share ideas, and expand our network among graduate students.
Please visit website www.psgsa-uofm.com<http://www.psgsa-uofm.com/> for details and updates for the schedule and speakers. The deadline for event registration is 2nd Feb 2018 and abstract submission is 23rd Feb 2018. Please follow the link on the website for registration and abstract submission.
We highly appreciate fellow students for volunteering in different organizing sub-committees. We still require lots of hands for successful hosting of symposium. If you are interested in volunteering on one of the sub-committees, or helping on the days of the symposium, please let us know, as we are always looking for extra volunteers!
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
Sincerely,
Anjan Neupane

Subject: NSERC Community Engagement Visits 2018 / Visites du CRSNG en 2018 pour mobiliser le milieu de la recherche
Good afternoon
NSERC engagements visits have been a successful tool for the Agency and the community to share information and build linkages. Over the last five years, NSERC officials have made 54 visits to 39 universities. Moving forward, we plan to continue connecting with the community through these engagement visits.
These visits also offer a platform for the community to ask questions and seek direct information from some of NSERC's staff. The visits are planned for three hours and feature presentations by NSERC staff, interspersed with opportunities for questions from attendees.
NSERC is also providing the Engagement visits in Webinar format as per the information below.

Bonjour,
Les visites de mobilisation réalisées par le Conseil de recherches en sciences naturelles et en génie (CRSNG) sont utiles, car elles permettent à l'organisme et au milieu de la recherche d'échanger de l'information et d'établir des liens. Au cours des cinq dernières années, des représentants du CRSNG ont effectué 54 visites dans 39 universités. Le CRSNG prévoit continuer d'établir des liens avec le milieu de la recherche grâce à ces visites.
En outre, ces visites donnent au milieu de la recherche une occasion de poser des questions et d'obtenir de l'information directement auprès du personnel du CRSNG. Les visites d'une durée de trois heures comprennent des exposés donnés par des employés du CRSNG, qui sont entrecoupés de périodes de questions réservées aux participants.
Le CRSNG offre aussi des webinaires qui visent à susciter la participation du milieu de la recherche (voir les renseignements ci-dessous).
Nous invitons tous les établissements intéressés à recevoir des représentants du CRSNG à communiquer avec nous (resgrant(a)nserc-crsng.gc.ca<mailto:resgrant@nserc-crsng.gc.ca>). De plus, nous tenterons autant que possible d'informer les établissements lorsque des représentants du CRSNG seront dans leur région, car ceux-ci pourraient en profiter pour faire une visite de mobilisation.
