Join us on Wednesday, June 12 to hear Krystal Oon and Dr. Molly Jud present their research at the Developmental Interest Group!

Yeah! Judit is on science Friday!!

A new study in Nature disproves a long-standing idea that multi-celled animals evolved from a single-celled ancestor resembling a modern sponge cell. Instead, it was probably quite similar to a stem cell. Read the paper here: go.nature.com/2ZqVKwF

We’re excited to announce the Knight Campus is joining forces with the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute (OHSU Knight Cancer Institute) to combat cancer with data science, in a partnership involving the UO's Data Science Initiative (Oregon Data Science Initiative): bit.ly/2EYyBtJ

The plan lays out key priorities and areas of scientific focus that will serve as the ideological foundation of Knight Campus. ow.ly/hce650uHwOf
