23rd Annual Ottawa Carleton Institute of Biology (OCIB) Symposium
About OCIB
The Ottawa-Carleton Institute of Biology is an institutional collaboration between the Biology Departments at the University of Ottawa and Carleton University. OCIB members have significant expertise in physiology, botany, biochemistry, neuroscience, molecular biology, genetics, bioinformatics, evolution, and toxicology - just to name a few. The OCIB facilitates interdisciplinary research, and collaboration between the two universities and external partners. Each spring the students, postdoctoral fellows, faculty, staff, and guest speakers gather for the annual OCIB Symposium. This year our theme is Networks in Nature.
The symposium will be held on April 27-28, 2026
