Who are we? What do we do?

We are an interdepartmental collection of students within the graduate group in microbiology (GGM) at UC Berkeley who share a common interest in microbiology. We meet once a month and hold an annual symposium to celebrate microbiology graduate research. We also maintain a campus and community-wide presence through events like Cal Day which enriches our grad school experiences through outreach.

Our doors are open to anyone with an interest in microbiology.

Our goals

1. Foster the professional development of microbiology students
2. Facilitate social interactions and networking in the field of microbiology
3. Support microbiology students academically and emotionally
4. Serve communities through outreach
5. Enhance the quality of science being done by microbiology students

​We are an official Student Chapter of the American Society for Microbiology
