Princeton Section

 

Monthly Dinner & Seminar

Monthly seminar meetings have been an integral part of the activities of the Princeton Local Section.  Seminars touch on many aspects of chemistry, engineering, medicine and materials and are usually planned with a wide audience in mind.  These gatherings enhance our knowledge and educate us in fields that might be different than our own.  In the past, the Princeton Section has hosted prominent scientists as well as those who have gone on to other fields . See who spoke in years past, then plan to join us for an interesting presentation, constructive conversation, and a great dinner!
