Following this discussion, the keynote speaker, Lauren Albrecht, will give a talk on “Methylation emerges as the global integrator of molecular signaling and dietary metabolism in cancer” at 12:45 p.m. in Ford Life Sciences, Room 115. It’ll be followed by a short talk from 2023’s Undergraduate Research Excellence awardee!

On Thursday, April 13 from 12:45-2 p.m., stop by the Engineering Building’s High Bay to hear about the fantastic research being done by undergraduate students in the College of Engineering & Science!
