Undergrad researchers share their summer experiences at the USRA Poster Session

Undergraduate scholars are ready to share their discoveries—and their amazing summer experiences—at the 2022 Undergraduate Student Research Awards (USRA) Poster Session on November 1.

The session highlights work done by USRA winners, who spent this past summer working in the labs, libraries, and in the field. Their hands-on research experience gives them an opportunity to get a taste of what it is to be a graduate student researcher.

USRA recipients will share their research covering a broad range of topics, such as

• impacts of the pandemic on refugee youth
• the Indigenous population of ancient Sicily
• the use of soybean oil and silicones in bio-based plastics
• how bias influences the spread of misinformation

A full list of USRA presenters is available online.

Everyone is welcome to attend the annual USRA Poster Session, happening in CIBC Hall (third floor of MUSC) on Tuesday, November 1, from 12:30 to 2 p.m.
