Journal Clubs

Advanced undergraduates are also encouraged to attend Journal Clubs. These are informal, weekly sessions (usually during the lunch hour) which cover a specific research topic. Each week a recent research paper is discussed. Several journal clubs run concurrently each semesterl. MB&B 286/586 is described on the bulletin board outside of the Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Department Office. If you have questions concerning the Molecular Biology and Biochemistry major they can be addressed to any faculty member in the MB&B Department.

The Molecular Biophysics Journal Club (MB&B 308/508) is a weekly gathering of all students, research associates and faculty associated with the program for critical consideration and discussion of research described in the current literature. Here, in addition to exposure to advanced subject matter, students gain experience with research design, and presentation and discussion skills. Molecular Biophysics Journal Club is a centerpiece of the Biophysics program and regular participation is required for students in the program. Questions about the Molecular Biophysics Program can be directed to David Beveridge (dbeveridge@wesleyan.edu).
