About

The Oxford University Biochemical Society (OUBS) was founded in 1964 and is the official student association affiliated with the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Oxford.

The primary goals of OUBS are to promote understanding and discussion of exciting and current topics in biochemistry, to increase cohesion between students within the department, and to introduce students to different career pathways. OUBS achieves these goals by regularly organising scientific talks, careers talks and social events, which are open to students, post-docs and senior members within the Department of Biochemistry.

The OUBS

The Oxford University Biochemical Society (OUBS) is a student-run society that aims to promote biochemistry at all levels across the university. We organise seminars that bring scientists from around the world to Oxford, and careers days for students and staff across the life sciences.

OUBS is one of the largest scientific student societies at the University of Oxford. Our membership is diverse, encompassing students and staff from all of the Department's branches. This reflects our goal of bringing together people from different backgrounds and disciplines.

We are the official graduate/undergraduate student association affiliated with the Department of Biochemistry in Oxford.​​​​​
