Forwarded on behalf of Amy Mangin:
Hi all,
The Canadian Society of Agronomy is once again doing monthly virtual graduate student presentations during the fall/winter months. CSA started this in the fall of 2020 as a way for graduate students to practice virtual presentation and if they wish get feedback on their presentations. We are currently looking for students that would like to present a short 13 min presentation on their research (proposals and results both welcome). Please pass the attached information to any graduate students that may be interested in your programs or elsewhere.
Detailed information about the program and how to signup are in the attached document, additionally, graduate students can contact me directly with any questions.
Thanks!
Amy Mangin
