In this episode, we talk with Erica Suchman, Associate Professor, Colorado State University, Ft. Collins, and Local Organizing Chair for the 2009 Conference. Erica talks about her attendance at the meeting for the past 12 years and the benefits of participating. Also featured are several participants at ASMCUE 2008 held at Endicott College in Beverly, MA and ASM's Education Director, Amy Chang, a co-founder of the Conference.
Now in its eighteenth year, ASMCUE gathers approximately 300 microbiology and biology educators for an interactive four-day conference. Educators come from colleges, universities and international institutions to learn and share the latest information in the biological sciences and education research.
The Conference program includes plenary, concurrent, poster, and exhibit sessions. Participants engage in formal and informal small group discussions between colleagues all focused on the same goal: to improve teaching and learning in the biological sciences.
Formerly known as the Undergraduate Microbiology Education Conference, this conference is sponsored by the Committee on Undergraduate Education, a committee of the ASM's Education Board and managed in conjunction with the ASMCUE Steering Committee.
