Hello BME @ UCD, The next meeting will occur next Monday from 4-5 pm in GBSF (specific room TBA). If you are looking to participate right away, we have two openings for Graduate Student Association (GSA) representatives that we need to fill. This position requires going to meetings three times a quarter. Other topics for this meeting: Halloween lunch/costume contest, T-shirt contests, and Prelim Q&A lunch. Thanks to all those who volunteered their time to make all the activities thus far run smoothly. I'll send out the location of the meeting later this week. Thanks!
