Pitt Biology Outreach is an organization that is committed to providing access to modern biology tools, techniques, and research methods. We applaud all women and girls who are currently in and aspiring to be in the sciences!
Together, we can work to create a world in which everyone knows they belong in the sciences.

It’s hard to believe that it’s already the end of week 3 of Gene Team! The group has made great strides with their data collection and are preparing for our wrap-up next week. These scientists have grown so much in 3 weeks!

Join us next Thursday, July 17th at 11:30am to hear about the amazing work the Gene Team has done this summer! The presentation will be in A221 Langley followed by a reception across the hall
