Host-Pathogen Interest Group Meeting
First Friday of the month, 2 PM, 177 Life Sciences Addition
This monthly meeting provides a format for members of the UCB community interested in host-pathogen interactions to form new connections. The format of the meeting is either a "work-in-progress" talk or a journal club presentation. The choice of which is up to the presenter. Journal club papers have a host-pathogen focus and, when possible, will highlight topics to be covered in an upcoming Immuno or Microbiology seminar (http://mcb.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/seminars.cgi).
