Darwin Day Seminar Series
Discovered by Charles Darwin, evolution by natural selection is the central organizing principle of all the biological sciences, from biophysics to 
ecology. We celebrate Darwin's birth and the importance of his work with yearly seminars and events. Darwin Day seminars and events are open to all.

Pittsburgh Bacterial Meeting (PBM)
Every year, the Department of Biological Sciences hosts a one-day meeting to bring together the bacteriology community in the Pittsburgh and tri-state area. While Principal Investigators attend the conference, the focus is on student presentations. Post docs and graduate students present their research in short talks and posters.
PBM2013 will be held on Saturday, March 9, 2013. The meeting is organized and hosted by Dr. Joseph McCormick. Funding has been provided generously by the Bayer School of Natural and Environmental Sciences and Fisher Scientific. Send inquiries to pbm@duq.edu.
