Distinguished Alumni Series

UB Alumni Association

DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI

The faculty of the Department of Biological Sciences takes great pride in the achievements of its past graduates. In recognition of this, The Distinguished Alumni Seminar Series was initiated in 2002 to honor past students in our Department who have gone on to distinguished careers in the Biological, Biomedical and related fields.  Each invited speaker spends a day meeting with faculty in our Department to renew old acquaintances and establish new ones. A reception sponsored by the faculty is held following the seminar to honor our distinguished speaker and for the speaker to personally meet with our current graduate students.
