The 4DN Consortium Scientific Webinar Series is designed to promote sharing ideas and establishment of new collaborations among the consortium members. It features scientific presentations by 4DN member group. These presentations are focused on new discoveries, and new approaches and are not meant to be high-level summaries of deliverables/objectives of each project as in annual consortium meetings. Each group is strongly encouraged to present unpublished research. The PI of each member group may designate either themselves or members of their group to give the presentation.

The format of this webinar series will consist of hour-long online video conferences. In the first round of the Webinar series, 34 presentations are planned. Each Webinar will feature two presentations, with each presentation allocated 20’ of talk time followed by 10’ of discussion. All member groups of 4DN consortium are expected to present once in this round, although some NOFIC centers may present twice given the size of their grants.

In addition to monthly Webinar series, special one-time mini-symposiums may also be added to cover specific topics, as needed, at the discretion of the 4DN Steering Committee.

The Webinar Series will be on the 4th Friday of each Month from 8 am - 9 am Pacific Time, 11 am - 12 pm Eastern Time. The Webinar will consist of two presentations of 30 minutes each (20 minutes presentation, 10 minutes discussion).

The Webinar organization committee has discussed and come up with a schedule for presentations after Feb 2017. See the schedule here: 2017 Webinar Series Presentation Assignments.

The Webinar organization committee has discussed and come up with a schedule for presentations after March 2018. See the schedule here: 2018-2020 Webinar Series Presentation Assignments.

The schedule is ranked by funded project and the corresponding PI's last name. While the corresponding PI is put in the presentation slot, it is up to the corresponding PI to decide who in their team is to give the talk. It is encouraged that trainees are given the chance to present. If the corresponding PI wants to switch with someone else on the list in a mutual agreement, then she/he has the responsibility to arrange it and let the Webinar organization committee know.
