<div>You're invited to attend the inaugural MIT-Harvard Microbiome Symposium! This half-day symposium will bring experts, young investigators, clinicians, and industry leaders in the field of microbiome studies together to highlight innovative work and novel
ventures in the area. This event aims to create an active community and generate excitement about opportunities in the microbiome space, targeting both
<b>established researchers as well as undergraduate and graduate students</b> who may be unfamiliar with the field. The symposium will feature talks from established and young investigators, as well a networking opportunity to learn more about<b> research and
job opportunities in the microbiome space</b>. Keynote speakers are Elaine Hsiao, speaking on the gut-brain axis, and Yvonne Huang, discussing the respiratory microbiome. Poster session will include recruiting for summer and year-long research and industry
positions. Lunch and snacks will be provided. </div>
