About the meeting
Annual Meetings of the OPS are a vibrant platform that brings together physiologists
and cell biologists (principal investigators, postdoctoral scholars, and students)
from across Ohio (Case Western, Ohio University, The Ohio State University, University
of Cincinnati, The University of Toledo, Wright State University, NEOMED, and many
others). It is our pleasure to host this year’s 37th Annual OPS meeting in Toledo.
This annual meeting will be an excellent opportunity for undergraduate and graduate
students, post-doctoral trainees, and early-stage investigators to showcase their
work in front of their peers for scientifically stimulating exchange of ideas and
to foster collaborations across OHIO.

Our college is located in Toledo, Ohio, a medium-sized city 100 miles west of Cleveland and 50 miles south of Detroit. Toledo is situated on the banks of the Maumee River and on the shores of Lake Erie in Northwest Ohio. A friendly and enterprising community, Toledo has outstanding metroparks, a world-class zoo, semi-professional hockey and baseball teams, and endless cultural opportunities.
