UMassGives 2021
The Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB) Department continues to grow in size, and each year we have an amazing group of talented students. BMB majors work extremely hard to excel in their studies, participate in research, publish papers, and present their data.
Your support allows our students to reach larger audiences at conferences, poster sessions, and other networking events. The BMB Student Success Fund provides our students with opportunities to interact with the scientific community and develop their professional careers. Although recent travel to conferences has been derailed due to the pandemic, we have still been able to provide funding for BMB majors to attend virtual conferences and take the American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) degree certification exam.
Please help us support our students by donating to the BMB Department during #UMassGives2021!
