UCR ETOX Mixer at SOT Meeting in San Antonio

The ETOX program will be hosting a UCR ETOX Mixer from 8-10PM on Sunday, March 11, 2018 at the Iron Cactus Mexican Grill and Margarita Bar (within the Cactus Room) on the Riverwalk in San Antonio immediately following the SOT 2018 Welcome Reception from 6:30-7:30PM.  This informal reception (cocktail party) will be an excellent opportunity for current ETOX students/postdocs to network with ETOX alumni, as well as ETOX alumni to reconnect with ETOX faculty.  With the exception of a few introductory remarks, we will not have a formal program in order to allow attendees to network and reconnect during the entire reception.  Heavy hors d'oeuvres and drinks will be provided courtesy of the ETOX program.

We are anticipating about 25-30 people to attend.  If you haven’t RSVPed already (thanks to those who already have!), please let Dave Volz (david.volz@ucr.edu) know as soon as possible if you will be attending the SOT 2018 meeting and plan to attend the UCR ETOX Mixer.  He needs to provide a final headcount to the Iron Cactus within the next few weeks, so want to ensure that our order is roughly aligned with actual attendance.  Details about this reception will also be published within the Event Calendar of the final program for the SOT 2018 meeting.
