BIOS, the quarterly journal of Beta Beta Beta Biological Society, was founded in 1930. It has a three-fold purpose: to publish matters that pertain to the affairs of the Society, to publish articles by members, and to publish articles that will be of general interest to biologists. Many distinguished biologists have contributed manuscripts for publication in BIOS, written especially with the undergraduate reader in mind. Subjects covered include articles on current research, developments in biology, biology as a profession, and graduate and professional training for biologists. Special emphasis is placed on the publication of undergraduate research papers.
