The UC Davis 35th Annual Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities Conference (April 26-27, 2024) was well-represented by 13 FST undergraduates. The conference is designed to acquaint undergraduate students with the process and academic rigors of presenting research in a scholarly manner and in an affirming environment, and is open to all academic fields.
Their names and presentation titles are below, as well as their faculty lab affiliation. For more about the conference, see the link below.
Congratulations for a job well done to all of our undergraduate participants!
