Skill sharing
Stuck on an experiment? New to the field? CSBGU aims to connect grad students within the department.
This webpage has the contact information for specific skills that volunteer grad students have specialized in.
Feel free to reach out!
Alternatively, CSBGU runs a Discord channel where you can reach out to a group of skillful grad students.
