Daily News
As of today the UAB is launching its new layout. This layout is easier to navigate and contains more features.
Additionally, the UAB membership process is now open to freshmen students. The UAB reserves 3 spots for freshmen each year. If you are interested in applying fill out the form by clicking on the link in the menu.
Please continue to check the UAB website for updates on events, news and information.
The UAB is collaborating with
BOGO (The
Biomedical Optics Graduate Organization) to pair up undegraduate
students with graduate students to perform research over the summer and
continue in the fall. If anybody is interested in doing research in BME
optics please contact me (juansp88@gmail.com) so we can find a position
for you. This is an incredible opportunity! If you're interested in
research, you should contact me even if you're not in track 1 because
BOGO also has contacts with Track 2 and Track 3 people. So regardless
of your track, we'll try to find a research mentor for you.
Here is a link to the BOGO website so you can get an idea of the
research that is being done and the people you could potentially be
working with.
