A Community Away From Home

The things we do together…

Events

Potlucks
We believe that food is the ultimate icebreaker. Pre-COVID, we met monthly during the semester to eat, laugh, and drop accents 😉

Fireside Chats

Career. Research.
We believe in not repeating the mistakes others have made. As such, we provide a safe space to get real about Academia & Industry.

Community

Celebrating Achievements
When one of us wins, we all win. Fellowship Applications, Life changes, School acceptance, Abstract/Paper submissions…
