ETOX Annual Student Symposium Took Place on Monday, June 13, 2022

 



On Monday June 13, the Annual Student Symposium of the Environmental Toxicology Graduate Program was held in person at the Botanical Gardens Conference Room.  Twenty-three students spoke, some giving full 15 minute presentations and others giving 5 minute lightning presentations.  I was unable to attend but understand that the talks and the research presented were of all of high quality and were a great way for the students and faculty to find out about the graduate student research being performed at UCR.  Special thanks go to Prof. Min Due and Phd. student Alexa Canchola who chaired the Symposium Committee as well as Desiree Aispuro, Zhongwen Cao, Xingyuan Chen, Sarah Avila-Barnard, Benjamin Maki, Ying Tan, Junyi Chen, Roxana Coreas and Qiaoshi Jiang who served on the committee and assisted with the preparations.   Our congratulations go to the following students who won awards for their presentations.
