Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to announce the program for the 2023 Gordon Research Conference and Seminar for Undergraduate Biology Education Research is now online and applications are open. This year's theme is “A New Vision for Change: Re-imagining Biology Education Through Social Justice”. We hope the 2023 UBER GRC will center people and communities, foster collaborations and systemic changes, and create new visions toward social justice by providing a forum to share emerging research and practices that promote inclusive, diversity, equity, access, and social justice in undergraduate biology education across disciplines and sectors. We invite applications from students, postdoctoral scholars, researchers, educators, administrators, policy makers, and publishers. Among the issues to be tackled are humanizing STEM, intersectionality in biology education research, dissecting new research that is helping our community understand how big data and data analytics are creating research opportunities and new paradigms, and highlighting some of the transformative programs that are successfully catalyzing widespread improvement in our educational systems. The Gordon Research Seminar is a pre-GRC workshop for early career researchers. Both conferences invite poster submissions to highlight key work in the field.
We welcome your application for these events:
