Become a Member of the CDI

All interested faculty members at Washington University are invited to join a CDI Center. As a member of a CDI Center, investigators attend quarterly discussion groups in which the Scientific Director updates the Center members on the CDI's progress and plans and a CDI-funded investigator presents his/her work. These meetings provide faculty with an opportunity to pose questions to the Scientific Director about the CDI and to engage in intellectual discussions about exciting and innovative science. To become a member, please send an email to cdi@kids.wustl.edu to request assignment to the Center most closely aligned with your research interests. Onceassigned, you will receive emails about all upcoming Center meetings and events.
