Student Colloquia
The EEB Grad Group (EGG) organizes a bi-weekly colloquium at noon every other Wednesday located in the EEB Hub (1441 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.
Questions can be directed to the committee co-chairs: Alyssa Saunders and Wendy Leuenberger.
