Read about the OCL in UB Now!

“I really look forward to Fridays because it’s the OCL day and because I can talk to real people, and the rest of the week I only interact with models and papers in my lab.”

“I enjoy interacting with different people in OCL in a real way, just like in the first networking session. I can genuinely participate in a face-to-face situation where we talk to each other, get to know each other and don’t have to worry about making a fool of ourselves. It’s a clear process of building courage.”
