8:00AM – 5:00PM
Piedmont University, Demorest, GA
Piedmont University, located in Demorest, Georgia, is hosting a Regional Association for Biology Laboratory Education (RABLE) conference on October 17, 2026. Attendees will participate in one major workshop (a three-hour hands-on laboratory) in the morning and two shorter workshops (each lasting about 90 minutes) in the afternoon. These workshops will cover a wide range of biological fields. While many are designed for attendees to engage with the material and activities as a student, other workshop topics may include instructional techniques, assessment, or lab management. Presenters will provide essential information needed to integrate their labs and activities into your courses.
