Graduate Program - Molecular Basis of Disease

Student Retreat

The Graduate Program has two retreats each year - one in the autumn and one in late winter. Students gather to give presentations of their research work. Senior students present at the autumn meeting and more junior students present at the winter meeting. Each retreat includes lunch and a fun activity. In recent memory the activities have included a tour of Lake Union aboard the Argosy "Spirit of Seattle" and an afternoon at the Experience Music Project at the Seattle Center.
