This year we want to connect members in the region by inviting departments/labs in the Southeast Chapter to be featured on our social media platforms! We plan to do this weekly through the regional meeting in February and the national meeting in May. We would post your department/lab on social media based on the information you send. If you would like your department/lab showcased, please contact our Student Representative, Alyssa Parten at aparten@una.edu.

Please include the following information:
  • Pictures you would like included of your lab or department. Some ideas for photos could include the type of research conducted, group photos of faculty/staff/students, logos, or even photos of buildings, etc.
  • Descriptions of the research that is conducted in the department/lab and the programs offered within the department.
  • If your department has opportunities for students (graduate program, GA/TA) please incorporate that information in the description.
