[bioundgrd] In Need of your Colloquium Nominations for Academic Year 2026/2027

[Margaret Cabral]

Dear Members of the Biology Department Community,

We would like to request your nominations for the 2026-2027 Colloquium Season. As most of you know, this is an opportunity to showcase a diverse slate of outstanding scientists from all disciplines in biology. We are particularly interested in speakers at the intersection of biology and AI. Please also consider past invited speakers<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UTNynbUNWWKaOdzmNIl9mOQPsmvdfBVOnPzC5qPbL9M/edit?usp=sharing> when selecting nominees, so we can highlight new voices. The nomination process is open to our entire community, so anyone receiving this email can nominate a speaker. Given the limited number of colloquium slots, we could not invite many nominees from past years—feel free to nominate again any speakers you remain excited about.

Please provide your nominations using the form below by Feb 15, for them to be considered by the Colloquium Committee.

Hernandez Moura Silva, Mike Hemann, & Sebastian Lourido
