• The 24th Annual C.P. Lee Endowed Graduate Student Research Presentation Day (GSRPD) is going virtual. Join us on Thursday, November 19, 2020 via Zoom as we celebrate another year of graduate student STEM research at Wayne State with keynote speaker Dr. Marlene Belfort of University at Albany - SUNY.
Abstract submissions open Monday, August 31st and will stay open until Friday, September 26th. Due to time limitations of a virtual format, we will feature 5 oral presentations and 20 poster rapid-fire presentations this year. As tradition, the top 7 presentations will receive monetary awards, so get out there and show us what you've got!
Keep an eye out for more details to come soon! For more information, like us on Facebook, follow us on Instagram, or visit the 2020 WSU GSRPD website. Questions can be directed to conference co-chairs, Shreya Banerjee and Madison Walton, via email at gsrpd@wayne.edu.
