Research in Progress
Fall 2011 and Spring 2012
Throughout the year, each of our students and post docs gets a chance to present their research to the Genetics and Genomics community at Boston University for feedback to help drive their research in new directions. Each talk is an open forum for the BU community to discuss the presenters work or other topics after the talk.
Pizza and Refreshments will be served on the day of each talk at 12pm and the talk will begin at 12:15pm.
If you are interested in presenting a RIP for the Genetics and Genomics program, please contact us.
