Symposium 2020 Posters and Presentations

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we made the decision to cancel our traditional Symposium in the best interests of students, faculty, and attendees. However, we wanted to showcase our funded graduate and undergraduate student’s hard work and innovative research. Please enjoy the posters and presentations from our 2020 funded students.
