Current Opportunities:

Be a Student Leader of the Next BIOT-ESBES Design Competition

What: BIOT is looking for Graduate Students interested in leading/organizing the next ESBES-BIOT Design Competition. There have been several successful versions of this over the past several years, and BIOT is encouraging students to take the lead in organizing the next competition. Dr. William Kelly (BIOT) and Dr. Marieke Klijn have served as previous organizers and will be resources during the planning for the next set of leaders. We will be meeting to discuss on Mon, August 14 from 5:30-6p PST in Golden Gate C2/C3 at the Marriott Marquis.
