The goals of this seminar series are: 

• to increase biological network visibility and spark new opportunities for collaboration and engagement; 
• to promote coordination with other networks, such as the CZI Seed Networks; and 
• to lay the groundwork for drafting Atlas roadmaps in each biological area in preparation for work sessions at the virtual June 2021 HCA General Meeting.
• This seminar will take place the second Thursday of each month, 10:30 – 12:00 p.m. EST

The seminar format will be as follows:

• Two 20-minute talks, each highlighting a different biological network. 
• 40-minute breakout sessions featuring the two networks highlighted in talks. 
• 10-minute report-back session following the breakouts.
