The Koshland Integrated Natural Sciences Center was hopping this summer! 95 students worked with 28 different faculty mentors or in labs on campus, conducting research in a range of areas from biology and chemistry to astronomy, computer science, math, physics, and psychology. (Even more student-scientists were supported by the Center to conduct research off-campus.)
On Sept. 19 many of these student will present posters or talks on the research they did over the summer at our Undergraduate Science Research Symposium, but you can get a sneak peak at their work in the gallery below:
