Whether it is your first year in a lab, or you are close to graduation, come to eat and socialize. Please rsvp by April 7th so that we can estimate food.
**Research Excellence Award: For the second year, the Departments of Biology and Chemistry & Biochemistry would like to honor students who have excelled in their research programs. Nominations for this award must be completed by the Faculty advisor using the Nomination Form. We recommend that the awardee nominated for the award also present at the Lightning talks. Therefore, Faculty members, please remind the student you have nominated to register for the lightning talk. The awards will be announced at the end of the Student Research Lightning Talks and students will also be recognized at the College of Engineering and Science Slide Rule and Honors Convocation.
