Community Engagement

The MICaB community is open and welcoming to all who choose to pursue research in the field of Microbiology, Immunology, and Cancer Biology.  Some examples of our community in action include:

  • Peer Mentor Program: pairs existing MICaB students with incoming students to provide support, guidance, and connection within the MICaB program
  • Scientific outreach events: to introduce young students in the community to science and research
  • Career panels: showcasing the different career paths within medicine and biomedical research
  • Virtual graduate school application workshops: assists applicants in writing a strong application for graduate school and preparation for interviews
  • Public newsletter: to increase awareness of the MICaB community and relevant issues
  • Public service activities: to support initiatives within academia, the University, program, and the greater Twin Cities community of importance to the MICaB community
