Mission
The purpose of BCC is to foster knowledge of, give hands-on experience, and exposure to, scientific literature in areas of bioscience study at OSU and OSU-Cascades. Our goal is to introduce students to the understanding of how lab courses go about various hypotheses testing during open lab times to introduce new students to proper lab etiquette, primary scientific publications through regular group discussions of a preselected science journal to encourage critical thinking and analysis of such literature, and to connect on a larger scale with the community of the college and public with meet and greet events for networking purposes. Working together to broaden our understanding, we hope to aid in producing impactful members of the scientific community.
