Current Dean's Workshops
Welcome to the Dean's Workshops website
The Dean's Workshops series brings together physicians and scientists from across the School of Medicine, the Yale medical center, and Yale University to address topics of critical importance in advancing biomedical research and patient care.
The workshops serve as a forum for new ideas and collaborations across disciplines.
The first event in the 2013 Dean’s Workshops series, “Facilitating Molecular Innovation: The Yale Center for Molecular Discovery,” will take place Friday, January 25, 2013, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., in the Anlyan Center Auditorium.

A reception with refreshments will follow the Dean’s Workshop.
The Yale Center for Molecular Discovery (YCMD) provides ready access to
state-of-the-art technologies for small molecule screening, medicinal chemistry, computational chemistry, and siRNA screening. With its expert staff and cutting-edge instrumentation, YCMD helps with all aspects of projects, from experimental design to data analysis. Seed funds are available for new projects, as are opportunities for follow-up funding by commercial partners. This Dean’s Workshop will outline the capabilities of YCMD and describe four examples of successful projects.
