About
Welcome to the official website for The American Society for Microbiology (ASM), Student Chapter at the University of Florida! We are a student-run organization committed to expanding the microbiology community for undergraduate students at UF. Our mission is to encourage our students and the broader UF community to deepen their connection to microbiology by offering more involved learning and career opportunities. We work to achieve this mission by creating a supportive community that simultaneously offers our students additional resources for success such as research presentation, career speakers, and development workshops.
