12. Thursday, November 30th from 9:30 am – 11:00 am
CIBRunch
CIBRunch is designed to provide investigators with basic information on many of the core laboratories and their capabilities and services offered.
Each core will host a round-table to answer questions specific questions and provide detailed information on their capabilities. You can visit as many core-hosted tables as desired.
CIBRunch will be held in the MSTF Auditorium on
Thursday, November 30th from 9:30 am – 11:00 am
