You will not stay alone. The San Francisco Grad Students & Academics community is already waiting.

Grad Students & Academics community in San Francisco
About this group

Stanford, Berkeley, UCSF. Thesis deadlines and cheap group dinners.

Graduate students and postdocs at the Bay Area universities. Study-group formation, funding and stipend talk, and the honest "is this advisor relationship normal" conversations.

Group vibe

Sleep-deprived, curious, generous with notes.
