Undergrads: Would you like to develop a personal relationship with a mentor in academia?

The Biomatrix Mentoring Series is your chance to get to know MIT Biology Professor Angelika Amon, Associate Professor of Biology at MIT.

At the first meeting in this series on Jan. 16, you’ll join ten students for (free) breakfast with Prof. Amon and a conversation about her career, followed by a lab tour. On January 25, you'll join the same students and Prof. Amon at TOMB, a team adventure in Boston. For more about TOMB, see TOMB Website

Students must commit to attending both events. The trip to TOMB will be partly subsidized by Biomatrix, but students must pay $10, and provide their transportation. Please bring your $10 to Cathy Modica in E25-518 by Jan. 16, in order to save your spot.

Yes... MIT joined with Harvard University and Harvard Medical School in 1970 to form the "Health Sciences and Technology" (HST) Program. HST's Medical Sciences curriculum leads to an M.D. degree from Harvard Medical School. Classes are given both at MIT and Harvard, and students in this program are registered as graduate students at both institutions. This program is oriented toward students with strong interests in a career in biomedical research. Typically half of those students who matriculate majored in biological sciences and half in physical sciences. In this information session, Dr. Cohen will present and discuss all aspects of the MD program. Please email address below to sign up.
