Synapse plays the vital role of strengthening our widely-dispersed campus community by telling stories about UCSF and student life that can't be found anywhere else. Those who contribute to Synapse benefit by networking with colleagues in an array of programs and learning skills that translate to health science careers, like organizing thoughts to tell a good story, writing clearly and concisely, and executing on deadline. All published contributions earn a $25 Amazon gift card.
Joining the Synapse team is easy! Just attend a biweekly meeting, or email synapse@ucsf.edu with your inquiries. All meetings are held on Zoom from noon to 1 pm.
For Zoom link, please RSVP by email with your name and UCSF affiliation.
