UCSF Women in the Life Sciences Coffee Talk and Seminar

 November 16, 2014 |  Uncategorized |

I’m heading over to the University of California San Francisco this coming Wednesday (December 19th). I’ll be chatting with the UCSF Women in the Life Sciences group about my graduate school experience, work-life balance, and science outreach. After that, I’ll be giving the Evolution Seminar, where I’ll be talking about my research. I’ll essentially be giving my exit seminar, which should be a lot of fun (because, you know, brain-infecting parasites are always awesome).

When: Wednesday, Nov 19, 2014, 3pm – 5pm
Where: Mission Bay, Genentech Hall, Room N114

More information is available here. 

Thanks to Kelly Nissen for inviting me! Looking forward to meeting everyone.
