Organizers: Megan Murphy (mam19@iu.edu) and Alissa Anderson (algander@iu.edu)

Meets monthly; day and time to be announced

The Biology Lecturers’ Journal Club is a place for lecturer faculty within Biology to discuss issues of importance to NTT teaching faculty and relevant readings in the literature (selected by the organizers). We aim to increase awareness of pedagogy research, best practices in teaching, and to form a community of practice within the department.

Email Megan or Alissa if you are interested in the journal club. We have maintained this as a space for lecturers to build a community, but we may open our meetings to non-lecturer faculty, postdocs, and graduate students if there is interest.

The Community Ecology Journal Club provides a forum for all (student, technician, postdoc, faculty, etc.) interested in ecology to discuss journal papers and books of interest to the group. Typically, students needing credit can register for a Z620 (1 cr).

Organizers Fall 2024: Spencer Hall (sprhall@iu.edu) and Jen Lau (jenlau@iu.edu); Spring 2025: Jen Lau (jenlau@iu.edu)

EcoLunch is a lunchtime discussion group that brings together all EEB at the IU Bloomington campus from all levels of biological organization—including genetics, evolution, ecology, and behavior (as in EEB), etc. This encompasses research talks, workshops, informational sessions on non-academic careers. These sessions are designed to help EEB students understand other work that is going on in the department and build their skillset and knowledge on various topics. Coffee and snacks always provided!

Look for weekly EcoLunch event titles and descriptions announced in the TWiB each week.

Please feel free to email us if you have any questions.
