Additional Activities, Stem Cell & Developmental Biology
Group-specific activities include monthly Stem Cell Consortium meetings. These meetings feature invited speakers from throughout Southern California. For info, email Shonna Hyde, shyde@burnham.org.
There are also numerous seminar series relating to biochemical and genetic mechanisms controling cell and molecular biology, many of which are directly related to stem cell biology and development. The Molecular Pathology Seminar Series is a monthly forum where program faculty from UCSD and institutional affiliates present their lastest laboratory results. Following the talk, students can chat with the seminar speeker over pizza, cookies, chips, and cheeze. The Burnham Institute Seminar Series is a weekly multidisciplinary research series that brings in nationally- and internationally-recognized speakers focused on questions in molecular and cellular biology related to human disease. At UCSD, the Cellular and Molecular Medicine Seminar Series maintains a somewhat broader focus on cellular and molecular biology. The Pathology Minisymposium Series focuses specifically on molecular mechanisms of human disease that can be studied and treated using small animal models.
The program also holds an Annual Spring Research Symposium at Scripps Institute of Oceanography, where students present their work, discuss their ideas and hypotheses, and engage in some friendly scientific debate.
