Member-Initiated Virtual Activities

Virtual Activities

The Virtual Activities listed below are organized by SNL members to increase opportunities for scientific and social interaction outside our annual meeting. Mentoring, journal clubs, methods meetings, virtual talks, virtual coffee breaks, peer-to-peer meet-ups (just postdocs/just grad students/just full professors etc.) are all welcome, be creative! What would you like to talk about with other society members? Post it as an activity!

All activities will take place over Zoom (or similar). View an event to get more information and sign up to attend. You must be a current SNL member to participate in Member-Initiated Virtual Activities.

If your activity is not in English, please state that clearly in your activity name (e.g., “Discussion of paper X in Mandarin/ASL/Finnish”). If the Virtual Activities initiative takes off robustly, the society will work towards systematic ASL interpretation whenever needed.

Please log in to your SNL Account to organize a Virtual Activity.

Virtual Activity Wish List

If there is a specific type of activity that you are interested in, but cannot organize yourself, please post to the Activity Wish List. Examples could be a tutorial on a specific method, a small group mentorship meet-up with a person whose career you admire, or a discussion with a program officer from a funding agency. If a specific person is requested on the Wish List, SNL will try to make sure they are aware that they have been requested.
