The members of this society consist of graduates of the MSCR program who are on faculty at MUSC, faculty currently enrolled in the MSCR program, current and previous K awardees, and current and previous VA career development grant awardees. The B&BS Club has traditionally offered the same opportunity for junior faculty, but has geared itself towards basic scientists.
