Fall 2019 Symposium

DURA kicked off its symposium series with our inaugural 2019 Fall Symposium, where we were thrilled to host over 40 students interested in hearing about undergraduate research process from student researchers coming from 5 disciplines across the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. We were fortunate to have researchers Meghan Poth '20 (Biology), Clayton Howard '21 (Classics), Max Farrens '20 (Neuroscience), Grace Sherrill '20 (Healthcare), and Revant Ranjan '21 (Economics) present on their projects and research experiences.

We look forward to hosting more of these over the coming year, as well as breaking out into smaller undergraduate research symposiums that are subject-specific.
