In the regular academic years, we host a weekly colloquium (seminar with Q&A by an invited speaker). Colloquia are Wednesdays<\/strong>, starting at 11.10am <\/strong>in Room D139 <\/strong>in the Science Building<\/strong>. Weekly colloquium announcements are distributed to the BioAll listserv; to be added to this email list, please email Dr Joanna Coleman<\/a>. Please direct other related queries to Profs Cathy Savage-Dunn<\/a> and John Waldman<\/a>, who run the series in the Fall and Spring semesters, respectively.<\/p>\n
