BIOCHEM 917 - Regulation of Gene Expression (Advanced Seminar)None. Either email Bob Landick or Rick Gourse for info on meeting time and place. No registration required. Normally people just pop in and eat their lunch while one person presents. You can optionally register as a 1 credit course if desired. Landick Lab and Gourse Lab joint journal club. Good option for 2nd and 3rd year students who need to fulfill the journal club presentation requirement. Generally casual format where one student/post doc will present a power point presentation on a recent paper generally related to gene expression regulation. These presentations normally go ~30 minutes, with 10-15 minutes of discussion about the paper. While the topic seems broad, most of the papers covered are about structural aspects of RNA polymerase, so just be wary of that.

Food Research Institutehttps://fri.wisc.edu/events_seminars.phpCool seminar on research in food safety, regulation, and production. Not overly relevant for a lot of our work, but interesting and can be a nice change of pace from the molecular biology.

Cell Biology Study Group (CBSG)
https://cytoskeletonatmadison.weebly.com/cytoskeleton-meetings-at-madison.html
A weekly seminar focused around the cell adhesion and cytoskeleton focus groups, but open to all. As a bonus, once you get on the mailing list you get a very entertaining email from Bill each Friday announcing that week's speaker.

Cell Division Group Meeting
https://cytoskeletonatmadison.weebly.com/cytoskeleton-meetings-at-madison.html
This is a monthly seminar, so it's a good option if you're strapped for time. There are two 30 minute talks, each with 15 minutes at the end for question and discussion. Topics include anything that involves cell division.

Evolution Seminar Serieshttp://www.evolution.wisc.edu/node/30Weekly ~45 minute seminar by students/postdocs or invited speakers, held in Genetics-Biotech 1360 (which is not the auditorium). Some undergrads attend every week, as the seminar is also offered as an undergrad course, so the audience is very broad in terms of field and expertise level.
