The meetings are attended by faculty, students and staff. Everyone is welcome. The meetings are coordinated by a graduate student, staff or faculty member who initiates the first meeting of the semester, sends out weekly announcements to participants, and introduces the discussion leaders. At each meeting a different club member serves as discussion leader. This individual selects that week's topic and decides on the meeting format.
Participants also use the club meetings to practice upcoming presentations at scientific meetings.
Topics include, but are not limited to, the basic biology, ecology, epidemiology, evolution, systematics, physiology, behavior and relevance of eukaryotic endoparasites, ectoparasites, bacteria and viruses.
