What is APES?

 

We're not just about primates!

APES represents all those Bio Sci Specialization and Honor programs that revolve around animals but we are also open to everyone that has a general interest in biology as well.

This includes but is not limited to:

         Animal Biology

         Physiology and Developmental Biology

         Evolutionary Biology and

         Ecology

Our purpose is to unite people with a general interest in biology.  We'll help you meet new people with similar interests, meet researchers and potential supervisors, and provide some cool job/volunteer opportunities.  Oh, and one of our biggest goals is just to have fun while we're at it!
