Presentation opportunities – Spring Research Conferences
Ohio Zebrafish Undergraduate Research (OHZU) Conference – March 22nd – Ashland University
ZRSO is happy to announce the OZHU Research Conference. The event will take place on Saturday, March 22nd at Ashland University.
This meeting is an opportunity for undergraduate students to present their research, learn about the graduate school admissions process, and meet scientists from local industry. For graduate students, post-docs, and PIs this is an opportunity to mentor undergrads and network with zebrafish researchers in our region.
There will be a keynote address and two workshops at the meeting:
- Dr. Jennifer Schumacher from Miami University will give our keynote titled How the pendulum swings: Genetic regulation of cardiovascular development
- Dr. Sharon Amacher from The Ohio State University will lead a workshop on the graduate school search, application, and admissions process
- Lauren Krug from Aquaneering will host a workshop on zebrafish husbandry, a popular workshop at our 2023 meeting
Two graduate programs are confirmed as participants, hosting information tables at the meeting:
- The Ohio State University program in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology
- University of Louisville Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics
You can find all meeting details on our OHZU website, such as:
- The abstract deadline is coming up on Friday, February 14th. Abstract guidelines and submission instructions are found here.
