For the second year in a row, the Jackson lab won the Trivia Challenge at the annual departmental retreat. We shared the prize this year but look forward to improving for 2016!

Meredith Frazier wins the Ann Bernard Martin Award at the 2015 Biological Sciences retreat. This award is "presented annually to a graduate student who has demonstrated exceptional promise in research and scholarly activities in the early stages of his/her graduate career in Biological Sciences." Congratulations Meredith!

Jim Hurley will visit the department on Monday, October 19th, to give the departmental seminar. This visit is co-hosted with the Center for Structural Biology. Jim will also give a brief presentation on the Berkeley biophysics graduate program, which will be a great opportunity for undergraduates to hear about a top U.S. program on campus.

Lauren will give a faculty keynote talk at the 2015 Biological Sciences retreat on Thursday, October 15th. Meredith will also give a talk on her AP4-tepsin project.

The Jackson lab celebrated (lamented?) the end of summer with an outing to Lightning 100's Live on the Green in September.
