The Division of Biological Sciences is hosting its annual research poster session on June 5th. Biology undergraduates and Masters students are invited to present a poster based on research they are conducting while at UC San Diego. Students will present their research to faculty and research judges, along with the general UCSD public. Top posters receive awards at the conclusion of the event. It is a great opportunity to make connections with faculty, practice communicating science to the public, and network with fellow students. Register as an individual or as a pair. If considering registering as a team, contact dobio@ucsd.edu for registration details.

Registration deadline is May 17th; earlier if spaces fill up! Space is limited.

Pick-up Date: May 13th - May 24th @ Biology Undergraduate Advising Office (Pac Hall 1128)

We offer students an immersive and personal experience with important environmental and cultural issues facing our wildlands and the cultures they support. Our small student teams travel to the heart of where today’s environmental challenges occur, and together we seek solutions for the critical concerns facing our world’s wildlands. Students have an unparalleled opportunity to work side by side with our faculty and active researchers, helping to find answers to important environmental problems.
