CMB Student Seminar Series
The CMB student seminar is designed to give CMB graduate students an informal atmosphere to practice presenting their research to other graduate students.
Contacts: Nicole Woodhead and Nina Dinne
See the CMB Calendar for updated student seminar information
CMB Seminar Requirement
Students are required to give an oral presentation beginning the second year of the CMB Program and each year thereafter. Second and third-year students can give either a Journal Club Presentation or Formal Research Seminar, while fourth, fifth, and sixth-year students must give a Formal Research Seminar. The requirements can be satisfied through a number of seminar series within individual CMB focus groups and departments across the UW-Madison campus. More information about the seminar requirement can be found on the Seminar Requirement page of the CMB Handbook. Feedback from students on different seminars can be found here.
