Overview
All CBB graduate students (Ph.D. and M.S.) are welcome at student activities, which are scheduled every week on Wednesdays from 4 to 5pm. They consist of:
- Research-In-Progress (RIP) and Journal Club (JC) meetings [graduatae students only]
- Town Halls approximately every 3 months [students and faculty]
The most up-to-date schedule is available via a link sent to all current students and food will be provided at all non-seminar meetings.
Note that meetings will be in-person and attendance will be taken at all non-seminar meetings. You will need to email the DGS if there are meetings that you are unable to attend.
Student Presentation Details
All Ph.D. students will present once a year after their first year (first years will present separately about their rotation projects). Please arrive on time. The DGS will typically attend the first few minutes of RIP and JC meetings to make general CBB announcements and answer any questions.
