Diversity: Resources for Graduate Students
Divisional Resources
BioEASi
BioEASI (Bio Education and Art for Science Innovation) is a team of Biological Sciences graduate students whose mission is to facilitate the interaction between scientists and the public through outreach, education and the arts to increase public interest in and support for basic scientific research, and to enhance the communication and creative thinking skills of scientists.
BioEASI believes that by achieving these aims, we can help further scientific innovation, recruit the next generation of diverse young people into scientific careers, and increase scientific literacy among the general public.
BioEASI is always looking for volunteers who are willing to commit a few hours to one of our specific projects. If you are interested in getting more involved, BioEASI has 3 tiers of leadership positions.
For information or to apply for a position, contact the current BioEASI Executive Chairs, Suzy Szumowski and Jenn Tsau.
