bioBUDS: Building Up Developing Scientists

UNITS:2
GRADING:Letter or Credit/No Credit
LEVEL:Undergrad
GER:—

BUDS is a student-centered and community-focused program which aims to connect all undergrads - but especially those from FLI and historically excluded backgrounds - to resources, skills, and potential mentors in the biosciences and beyond while fostering a vibrant peer community. We offer weekly grad student-led workshops covering a broad range of biological topics and special topic sessions (workshops, panels, community discussions). The Fall quarter session emphasizes growth as a scientist, seeking opportunities, and getting started in research. All sessions are open to all students regardless of course enrollment, department affiliation, experience-level, or field. For more information, visit our website: https://biobuds.stanford.edu.
