Sure. The recruitment event is standard: tours, interviews, meals. My interview was fun! I got to know the current grad students and enjoyed talking with the professors. The grad students and department are cooperative but it is a competitive school and we are expected to perform at a high level (if that makes sense). I'm not sure what insights you are looking for so if you want to know something specific just ask. My year they invited 16 people last year they invited over 30 - I do not know for this year.

Hey! I am in the program currently. We were on intersession from the 23rd-2nd. If you need a quick reply then I would email again.

I didn't specify a specific program. :/ My interests are gene therapy for neurological disease.

Interview invite from UMass Medical, BBS!

Sure, I submitted it on December 7th.

Just got Boston University Pharmacology PhD interview invite via email!!
