BME Happy Hour
On August 30, we organized the first social event of the semester. The newly joined students had a chance to meet the other graduate students, and everyone enjoyed some snacks, a drink, and lawn games! Even the new Director of Graduate Studies, Joel Collier, was spotted throwing a frisbee!
First Year Welcome Lunch
On August 22nd, the incoming first-year PhD students enjoyed a welcome lunch with BBQ from The Pit. Here are some pictures from the event. Welcome to the new students!
Graduate BMES Section
The Duke BMES Chapter now has a Graduate Section. If you are a BMES member (pay yearly membership dues), please add your name to the google spreadsheet (link inside announcement below) so that you can officially be affiliated as a Duke member. Affiliating with the Duke Chapter opens many opportunities to apply for fellowships and travel grants. All graduate students (Masters and PhD) are welcome to join!

BME PhD Student Leads Charge in RCR Feedback
Check out this blog article co-written by Laila Roudsari about RCR as a part of her Emerging Leaders Institute project! In the article, she highlights the RCR website that details upcoming seminars each semester. Remember, every PhD needs 12 total credits before they graduate, so keep an eye on the website for relevant seminars.
