The CVG Journal Club holds discussions of current articles drawn from broad, interdisciplinary topics which describe useful approaches, tools, and resources in genomics. Graduate students and post-docs in CVG labs will choose the topics/articles and lead the discussion. All CVG members and lab members are encouraged to attend. Meetings will be once per month, informal (and even fun!!), with snacks and drinks provided.

Faculty Advisor: Praveen Sethupathy
Student Organizers Fall 2026: Fred Fazan and Nicole Mejia

CVG Journal Club usually meets the last Wednesday each month from 11:00am-12:00pm with 2 presentations per meeting. In alignment with the CVG’s commitment to outreach, one presentation per journal club meeting will center on how science impacts society and the world around us. Please contact the organizers or Jenna DeRario if you would like accommodations to participate in these events.
