<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">As many of you know, Biomedical Sciences has its first tenure-track EEB hire in many years, someone who will teach medical gross anatomy in the med school but do research in
organismal evolutionary biology. They’ll have their lab and office on the first floor of LSB and, although we don’t mandate these things, almost certainly be part of the EEB grad program and OCEES. We hope you’re as excited as we are!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

undergrad and graduate students. The seminars are in MEC 141. MEC is the Medical Education Center (MEC), which is formerly the Human Resources and Training Center (HRTC) and is located next to Heritage Hall on West Union.
