Summer Research Presentation Series, Fall 2004
Each summer MARC U*STAR scholars, MIRT trainees, MBRS RISE and Bridges students carry out biomedical science research at national and international laboratories for 8-10 weeks. During this fall semester students will share their experiences through our “Summer Research Presentation Series.” This series begins on Wednesday, September 8 at 12:00 noon in Wiegand 234.
