POSTER SESSION & OPEN HOUSE
Thirty posters were presented during the open house session, so
there was plenty of research to talk about.

POSTER AWARD
We captured several shots of Jennifer Hornemann showing her poster and
she must have made an impression because she won the "best poster"
award. Congratulations, Jen!
