At the start of each year, there are multiple events held for the new fellows in order to welcome them into the program.
Throughout the year, the program directors host a bi-monthly breakfast meeting to get feedback on the program and work through any issues that arise.
Other favorite events include the Landmark Papers meeting, where a GI faculty member hosts a dinner at their home and moderates the discussion of a landmark research paper. GI fellows and faculty frequently socialize outside of work and participate in local events and fundraising activities.
