Scientific Communication

Catalog description

Focused on the effective dissemination of scientific information in biological and biomedical research disciplines. Students will develop the skills necessary to effectively communicate scientific ideas, experiments, and results relating to their PhD dissertation projects through activities common to the profession including writing a grant proposal and presenting research work orally. Each of the activities will be dissected into key components and developed through interactive discussions and peer review. Required for most second-year PhD students in the MCB and Computational Biology Graduate Program. Other qualified PhD students may enroll with instructor's permission.
