The cooperative efforts of the Interdisciplinary Biological Sciences Graduate Programs have culminated in organizing the 3rd Annual Interdisciplinary Biological Sciences Symposium - 2025 (IBSS). The goal of IBSS 2025 is to unite scholars from diverse biological domains to share advances in their fields and promote an atmosphere that facilitates the exchange of ideas and information. The symposium will feature keynote speakers who are experts in their fields and provide exceptional opportunities for participants to share their research through oral presentations and poster sessions. During this two-day symposium, participants will form new collaborations to advance innovative scientific research.
