21.01.2022 In honour of International Women's day yesterday, we thought we'd point you guys to some of our favourite women in STEM who are using social media to educate the public about science! Go check them out, and tell us about or tag your favourite STEM women in the comments!

21.01.2022 You may remember our recent Biophysics info sesh - well now, the SLOCI Team wants to find out YOUR views on the biophysics major (no matter what your science discipline)! For your responses, you will receive a $20 COLES DIGITAL GIFT VOUCHER. This survey will only be open for a limited time so get in quick to secure your voucher! The Student-Led Observations for Course Improvement (SLOCI) Team is working within the Faculty of Science to understand student experiences in courses across all science disciplines. The responses you provide to this survey will be used to give context to their report on the biophysics study pathway.

19.01.2022 Watch a quantum physicist, a postdoc, a teacher, a PhD student and an honours student talk job interviews, emails, making the most of undergrad, and how to talk to people at networking events, as well as discussing role models, great educators, and the value of encouraging and supporting diversity in the science field!

18.01.2022 Glow Stick Run. On your marks.

17.01.2022 Don't forget, Thursday is the launch of our Discord for semester 2!!! Come join your fellow students in playing some fun online games and relax a bit before semester really kicks in

16.01.2022 Hello everyone! My name is Callum and I am the Vice-President of UQCC for 2020!! Im going into my fourth year of a dual in BMath (Data Analytics and Operations Research) and BSci (Biophysics). Currently I work in labs doing data visualisation as well as molecular dynamics simulations, a branch of computational chemistry. Outside of studying and work I love playing drums in my band (Adders Rock), attempting to keep plants alive, and tearing down electronics. Getting to know new faces is always great, so if you see me at market day or around uni come and say hi, and Ill probably try to convince you to come do Biophysics (we are an endangered species).

16.01.2022 Attention all undergraduate students Have you considered studying a PhD? Wanted to study overseas? Well, here’s your chance! The Singapore Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) is hosting an interactive session on the Singapore International Graduate Award (SINGA), which is a fully funded 4-year PhD scholarship to allow international students to pursue their PhD in science and engineering in Singapore! Students will get to learn more about pursuing their... PhD under the fully funded SINGA program in labs with state-of-the-art facilities and be supervised by outstanding researchers! The webinar is being held on the 20 November 2020, Friday 6.30 to 7.30pm (Brisbane Time). Register for the A*STAR Singapore International Graduate Award PhD Webinar here: https://astar.syd1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_7PNcXYsWwlM8TB3

15.01.2022 William - A human found doing a range of Chemistry related activities, and the 2020 UQCC co-president in conjunction with Helen. Current aim is completing Chemistry Honours with the Robertson group, in the field of organic chemistry synthesising novel enzyme inhibitors. The hope for this human is to catalyse friendship between the students within the SCMB. (I have lost the ability to write anything but reports.)

15.01.2022 Important Sem 2 Updates from SCMB (Released last week) There will be 2 extra teaching weeks where SCMB will be running extra online tutorials to help students catch up on content. Barring any new government restrictions UQ campus will be open for semester 2 and SCMB courses will involve face to face teaching where possible. This includes labs. Most courses will have dual online/in person delivery with only very few courses being in person only.... The vast majority courses will be available with only a few exceptions. Be sure to keep checking your emails over the break for further updates If you are struggling with work or mental health in isolation there are UQ services available to help. The full announcement was emailed to students.

11.01.2022 Hi, my name is Edgar and I am a general executive for the chemistry club for 2020. I am in my third year of a dual degree in engineering and science. It may sound cheesy but chemistry club is a great opportunity for students, particularly in their first or second year to get involved in our community and meet like-minded people.

09.01.2022 As you all know, the spread of COVID-19 has resulted in the postponement or cancellation of social events for the time being. This means that for the remainder of semester, UQCC will not be holding any events. This is an unfortunate time for us all, and we hope for the safety and well-being of all our members and their communities, and wish the best for the researchers at UQ currently working tirelessly to help end this crisis.
