BioWorks

The BioWorks Committee aims to make scientific discovery accessible by providing hands-on experimental experience to all students. We provide students with research opportunities through immersive workshops, seminars, and real-world exposure to laboratory and industry environments. By fostering a community of curious minds equipped with tangible skills, we empower students to transform ideas into discoveries.

We are currently meeting on Tuesdays, in PFBH 291. Our next meeting will be on Tuesday at 7 p.m..
