The Landis Award administrative supplement will be used to support current and future trainees in the Broihier lab in their studies of molecular mechanisms of synapse organization. In part, it will be utilized to support their attendance at scientific conferences which will provide them with valuable experience presenting their work to a scientific audience. It will further support their utilization of specialty scientific cores on campus, including the high resolution microscopy core. Together, these activities will have significant positive impact on their training experience.
