Wisconsin Lutheran College invites undergraduate students and professors to present at or attend the fifth Milwaukee-Area Undergraduate Biology Research Conference. This one-day event will include poster and oral presentations along with a keynote speaker and lunch. A local meeting is a great opportunity to learn about and exchange exciting research ideas, meet student and faculty colleagues at nearby schools, and hone presentation skills.
Undergraduate students researching biomedical science, cell biology, ecology, plant biology, microbiology, molecular biology, biochemistry, marine biology, or other related subjects are encouraged to register.
To be considered for an oral or poster presentation, abstracts must be submitted by April 7. The body of each abstract should be limited to 999 characters. Oral presentations will be 12 minutes long with 2 minutes for questions. If not selected for an oral presentation, you will automatically be assigned a poster presentation.
