What is BECUR?

In 2008, University of Arizona students began planning the details for the Biological, Engineering, and Chemical Undergraduate Research (BECUR) Conference. Their planning for this conference finally came to fruition in 2010. BECUR became the first Undergraduate Affiliate Network, now known as American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) Student Chapters, regional meeting in the Southwest. BECUR is an ASBMB regional undergraduate research conference, funded by ASBMB Student Chapters.

BECUR provides the opportunity for undergraduates to present their scientific findings at the semi-professional level. By participating in BECUR, students will find themselves prepared for national conferences. BECUR 2018 will continue to unite students from various disciplines, provide an environment of shared knowledge, and recognize students for their constant efforts and contributions to their fields

Our conference will be held Saturday, March 17th from 9am to 2pm. Deadline extended to March 12th, 2018 at 11:59PM. Our conference is free to participate in, and we provide food, awards, and gifts to all participating members. For submitting your abstract, please visit the UA Biochemistry Club website, uabiochemistryclub.com. If you have any questions, please contact us at uabiochemistryclub@gmail.com.
