The UW Department of Biology firmly believes that everyone deserves access to science. We know that sharing science strengthens our community and enriches our community’s understanding of the world around us. And beyond that, connecting with the members of our community is simply fun and inspiring! As a result, the students, staff, and faculty of our department are dedicated to bringing science to our larger community by organizing and participating in an array of outreach activities.
