Students will participate in an IQ Biology bootcamp, a series of short scientific experiences and seminars intended to prepare them for an interdisciplinary doctoral program. During bootcamp, students will develop foundational skills and knowledge for interdisciplinary research, learn to work as a cohesive team with other peers and faculty, and improve their scientific communication skills.
All IQ Biology students participate in three, 8week research rotations during their first year. Students must choose three different labs in at least two different departments/disciplines to gain laboratory, experimental, and computational skills. These rotations should be an interesting opportunity to learn new techniques and introduce you to ideas outside of your primary discipline.
In your first year, you will also take up to two courses from already existing course offerings to balance your泭background with your desired research activities. These gapfilling courses give you an泭opportunity to broaden your capabilities and explore areas of quantitative biology that are new泭to you.
This symposium is a biennial event organized by students of the IQ Biology PhD Certificate泭to showcase the interdisciplinary work stemming from the program as well as from across campus. We will exhibit cutting edge science from a variety of areas including aging, disease, scientific journalism, ecology, and evolution.
