Katey Cooper, an Assistant Professor at Arizona State University, is studying the experiences of LGBTQ+ people in biology. A group of biology professional societies convened to assess the extent to which LGBTQ+ individuals feel included within their respective societies, in the workplace, and in the broader biology community and is hoping for broad participation in this brief (<10-minute) survey so that we can better understand the experiences of LGBTQ+ biologists. You do not have to be affiliated with any of the participating societies to take the survey.
Thanks for considering!

The Careers in Translational Science Seminar Series aims to broaden the exposure of graduate students, post-docs and other trainees at the HSC on the variety of career options within Biomedical Science. Whether it is forging ahead to make Translational discoveries, educating the next generation of scientists, or influencing national policy related to research, there are a variety of options for our various trainees to choose from. Speakers in this series represent the top of their respective fields and the paths that they have taken in their careers will serve as models for others who strive for excellence.

The Clinical and Translational Investigator Program (CTIP) is a unique two-year curriculum designed to facilitate scientific communication and accomplishment, and to provide a supportive environment for developing clinical and translational competencies in an informal and collegial atmosphere. The program is open to postdoctoral fellows, junior faculty and CTSC-affiliated scholars (including KL2 Mentored Career Development scholars and Master of Science in Clinical Research students). The aim is to provide a supportive environment for developing clinical and translational competencies.
Participants meet monthly to discuss their research, research ethics, and other topics related to conducting clinical and translational research. Each participant makes three presentations over a two-year period. The meetings also include didactic presentations that focus on clinical and translational research methods and cross-disciplinary research resources. receive feedback from their peers and faculty mentors, representing approximately 12 different departments in the School of Medicine, College of Pharmacy and College of Nursing.
The monthly meetings also include didactic presentations that focus on clinical and translational methods and cross-disciplinary research resources. Presentations have been given on study database management, comparative effectiveness research, engaging communities, clinical trials support FDA IND/IDE submission, among others. Core directors and specialists are invited to share information on resources available through the CTSC and other campus centers. The program is also effective at building collegiality among junior faculty and introducing researchers to others in different fields with similar interests.
During their first year in the Biomedical Sciences program, students (MS, PhD, MD/PhD) participate in lab rotations to help them identify research interests and mentors. After each rotation they give a short (5 min) presentation on their lab experience.
Lightning talks are typically held three times a year in October, January, and March. Dates and locations are announced in the weekly Research Education Office Digest and on this website when finalized.
BSGP Student Research Day 2023-2024 | TBA
Contact SOMREO@salud.unm.edu for an introduction to the current BSGSS student representatives for more information.
Student Research Day is a day-long event when BSGP students give short talks or present a poster regarding their research. A speaker is invited and the talk is followed by an open lunch for all students, faculty and post-docs. The best oral talks or poster presentations receive awards and recognition.
Research Day is coordinated by the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Student Society (BSGSS). This annual event is typically hosted in the Spring. Dates and locations are announced in the weekly Research Education Office Digest and on this website when finalized.
