The Life Sciences Institute Graduate Students Association (LSI-GSA) was initiated by students and faculty in 2006. The LSI-GSA executive are graduate student volunteers from multiple departments and research groups, who represent the 250 PhD and Masters students that work in the Life Sciences Centre.
Our goal is to enhance the training experience of LSI graduate students. We do this by:
•providing opportunity for students to share student-generated research;
•providing networking opportunities to promote collaborations both on and off campus;
•facilitating outreach events between graduate students and the community;
•representing graduate students by active involvement on the LSI Steering Committee;
•being accessible to all students within the LSI to address concerns appropriately.
Annual LSI-GSA events:
•CSI @ the LSI
•Celebrate Research Day
•Geek Olympiad
