The Immunology Program has an active seminar series in which both Iowa faculty and distinguished guests present their latest research information. This series has brought to the University a number of outstanding visiting scientists, a partial list of which appears below. A number of additional guest immunologists present in other seminar series, such as those sponsored by the departments of Microbiology. One unusual feature of our seminar series that is particularly advantageous for the Immunology graduate students is that the night of each speaker's visit is reserved for interaction with the students.
Dinner is served at a faculty member's home, with only students and postdoctoral fellows present.
This ensures maximum interaction of the students with the visiting professor, and fosters informal discussion about scientific and career matters. These dinners have been very popular with our students, who attend these evenings enthusiastically. April 18 Philip Cohen, Div.
