2023 West Coast Retreat

Join us in Pacific Grove for fun, networking, and collaboration!

Hertz Fellows will gather at Asilomar in Pacific Grove, California, for the annual west coast retreat to network, collaborate, and share stories. We're delighted to welcome in-school fellows and those five years out from their PhD to join this event.

Safety is a priority, and we are committed to ensuring necessary COVID-19 safety measures are in place. Vaccination is required for attendance at this event. We will continue to monitor the situation and share additional guidance with registrants.
