Why Join Us?

Breaking Silos. Building Belonging. The Celebration of Science is a direct response to the need for community building. We are moving beyond the traditional symposium to create a space where every graduate student in the Division of Biology & Medicine feels they belong.

This event is sponsored by the Office of Graduate Studies.
