The Spotlight Seminar Series is a trainee-led initiative hosted by the Goodman Cancer Student Society to foster interdisciplinary communication. These casual meetings are an occasion to gather around science, bridging the group’s expertise and sparking entirely new collaborations. Hosted by the Spotlight Coordinators of GCSS, the weekly event features an invited speaker, typically a trainee who has received a GCI Internal Award, who presents their ongoing research to GCI members. This is followed by an open discussion of the presentation. Special editions of the Spotlight Seminar series include talks presented by GCI Alumni describing their career paths, as well as presentations by the GCI Innovation Platforms describing their technology and services.
