Learn about Opioids 2/27/18 at 3:45pm in JR 354

You're invited to attend our American Chemical Society (ACS) Program-in-a-Box (PIB) where we will learn about opioids on Tuesday, February 27, 2018 from 3:45 pm - 5:15 pm in JR 354.

Program-in-a-Box is a fun event because you get to network with other chemists, learn about a topic, and win raffle prizes. Use the hashtag #ACSPIB to have your questions answered via social media.

Some of the past PIB events we've hosted here at CSUN include:

• October 11, 2016 Chemists' Code for Success: 3 Essential Skill Sets for Your Career
• October 20, 2015 Tales of Lab Safety: How to Avoid Rookie Accidents
• February 24, 2015 Chemistry on the Silver Screen
• October 7, 2014 Speaking Simply: Communicating Your Science

It's called Program-in-a-Box because if you RSVP your group, the ACS will send you a box filled with goodies and games. And we've RSVP'd for the opioid event, so join us!
