Below you will find a very short, but sweet, UBC Library Research Commons newsletter for December. Our workshops end this week, however, this makes the perfect time for your students to book one-on-one consults with our Graduate Experts! Please encourage them to do so if you can.

Here is the link to the newsletter, if it is easier to share that way:

Since you won’t hear from me again until 2020, I wanted to wish you all a wonderful holiday season. Hopefully balanced and happy! Thank you for all you have done this year to help us share our news at the Research Commons. We sincerely appreciate it!

Do you love science and technology? Do you like discussing recent advances in science? Would you like to meet like minded people and network with them ?

The 2nd Society for Canadian Women in Science and Technology (SCWIST) Brown Bags talk at The University of British Columbia will be on Tuesday (Dec 17th) from 12 to 1 PM at the Chan Gunn Pavilion (Room 200).

Our speaker this time is Adriana Suarez-Gonzalez, who will be speaking about single cell omics research and her career path.

She is a SCWIST member and has a background in Genome Sciences and currently works as a Science and Technology Advisor for 10X Genomics (https://www.linkedin.com/in/adrianasuarezgonzalez/). She’ll be speaking about the latest research on single cell omics, spatial technologies and the impact these new advances are having on oncology, immunology and other research areas, as well as her career path.

There would be a great networking opportunity amongst attendees, so a great opportunity to get to know more science enthusiasts at UBC!
