Undergraduate Research Poster Symposium

The annual DevSci Undergraduate Research Poster Symposium is a highlight of our summer program, showcasing the innovative research projects undertaken by our undergraduate students in DevSci affiliated labs. This event is a cornerstone of our commitment to fostering training in the developmental sciences at Northwestern.

Students present their cutting-edge research, developed under the mentorship of DevSci Faculty and Graduate Affiliates, to an audience of peers, faculty, and expert judges. The symposium not only provides a platform for students to share their findings but also fosters a collaborative environment where ideas and methodologies are exchanged, enhancing the educational experience for all participants.
