Consider Sampling ASMCUE!
Join on November 18 and 19

The ASM Conference for Undergraduate Educators (ASMCUE) is the premiere conference for undergraduate biology and microbiology educators to foster connections and empower the next generation of scientists. ASMCUE attendees come from all biology subdisciplines represented at ABRCMS!
This new co-location of ABRCMS and ASMCUE allows attendees of both conferences to sample content and network with audiences from a different type of conference than they normally attend. 
The enriching in-person events at ASMCUE will leave educators feeling energized and ready to implement new evidence-based and inclusive teaching practices.
