SUMMARY:UW Biology Presents: Biology Open House
DESCRIPTION:Please save the date – Saturday\, May 16th\, 2026 – because we are hosting a day of science and invite you to join us! \nThis event is free of cost\, and families and science enthusiasts of all ages are welcome. The UW Department of Biology is a large\, collaborative\, and integrative department – meaning our research and teaching spans from cellular and molecular biology to global climate change to paleontology to plant biology. Our department is among the largest undergraduate degree programs at the UW and is a vital STEM pipeline for the state of Washington. Come learn about the exciting things our department is doing from experts in their fields! Our UW Biology Greenhouse will also be open for visitors! \nAt our open house\, you’ll have the opportunity to explore topics such as:\n– How have penguins adapted to survive climate change?\n– How is neuron fate decided during development?\n– Why are mosquitoes attracted to us?\n– Do plants really “defend” themselves against insect predators?\n– How does the brain really work?\n– Does the Greenhouse really have a stinky corpse plant and when will it bloom next?\n– You’ll also be able to touch invertebrates\, brains\, fossils…and more!

SUMMARY:Emerging Connectomics of Thalamus and Striatum Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hands-on opportunity to learn how to use volumetric electron microscopy (EM) data and address biological questions central to the thalamus and striatum at the Emerging Connectomics of the Thalamus and Striatum Workshop\, hosted at by the Allen Institute.\n\n\nWorkshop Topics\n– Exploring the MD Thalamus and Striatum 3D EM volumes in Neuroglancer \n– Learning to use annotation tools in Neuroglancer \n– Developing biological questions involving the thalamus and basal ganglia loop \n– Developing tools to address these questions computationally \nWorkshop Goals\n– Attendees will develop an understanding of the HIVE Thalamus and Striatum datasets\, how to interpret EM ultrastructure\, and how to interpret APEX labels in the thalamic datasets to link to long-range inputs and outputs. \n– Attendees will learn how to explore the electron microscopy imagery\, neuronal segmentations\, and synaptic connectivity in the HIVE Thalamus and Striatum datasets. \n– Attendees will develop potential research questions and collaborations that will allow them to utilize these data in their ongoing research programs. \n– Workshop will foster a community to develop the datasets into publications through data curation and analysis. \nThis workshop is geared towards both participants with an interest in learning how to use EM data to address biological questions\, and participants interested in using and developing computational methods for data discovery.  Ideally the workshop will be a blend of participants with different levels of biological and computational expertise. No coding experience required to apply.

SUMMARY:Dr. E. Donnall Thomas Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Dr. E. Donnall Thomas and his colleagues discovered a way to treat advanced leukemia by eradicating malignant white blood cells in the bone marrow using high doses of chemotherapy and radiation\, and then replacing them with healthy donor cells. This revolutionary approach was the first definitive and reproducible example of the human immune system’s potential to eliminate cancer\, and it earned Thomas a Nobel Prize in 1990. Today\, cell-based therapies have become a standard of care for many patients with cancer and other diseases. \nRegistration for this event will open in July 2026.
