Student Colloquia
The EEB Grad Group (EGG) organizes a bi-weekly colloquium at noon every other Wednesday located in the EEB Hub (1440 BPS) during the academic year. Students and postdocs are invited to present their in-progress work, where they can receive feedback on their research in a supportive environment. Colloquia also provides an opportunity for students to grab lunch and socialize with friends and colleagues. Check out the archived colloquia list to see topics presented in previous semesters.
Questions can be directed to the colloquia co-chairs: Abby Beilman and Tony Zhou.
