Hi everyone,

An alumna of our UB program who is working on her PhD and studying genetics at JAX Lab in Bar Harbor, Maine, sent me this info below. If anyone has students (high school or college) interested in studying genetics, this is a really neat opportunity to work on a project and learn about careers.

Have a great day,

Mary

Hi Mary,

JAX education is hosting a virtual genetics workshop on 10/26 at 7 pm where high school students can participate in a mock research project and learn about careers as a part of their open house. This may be of interest to UB students thinking about science-related degrees or careers. More information can be found here:

Best,

Monique
