About
#What do we do? The Biology Graduate Students Association is our Biology student association under the Post-Graduate Student Society. We organize both social events (such as BBQs, social nights at Thomson House and Holiday events) and academic events (such as orientations, symposia and workshops). Check out our Constitution for more detailed information.
#Who is a part of BGSA? All graduate students and post-docs within Biology are members of the BGSA. Each student and post-doc pays a fee to PGSS that then goes to BGSA. In September, we vote on how we spend your money to organize various academic and social events.
#Join us at our BGSA events Stay informed about our events by checking out the BGSA blog page, subscribe to our calendars, or make sure you are on our ListServ! Feel free to contact us if you have any ideas for events!
