The Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB) Department has grown significantly over the past decade and a large portion of our undergraduate students are involved in a wide array of amazing research. They publish papers, present their data and work extremely hard in the lab!
We would LOVE to provide them with financial support to reach larger audiences at conferences, poster sessions, and other networking events. Our goal is to offer small travel awards to help defray the costs of these career-enhancing opportunities. The BMB Student Success Fund aims to open doors and provide our students with more chances to interact with the scientific community.
Please help us support our students by donating to the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Department during #UMassGives2019!
