RSS 1.0Health Sciences Research Day (MU)
The University of Missouri's Health Sciences Research Day ... provides a forum for original research and educational innovations by undergraduate, medical, nursing, and health professions students, as well as predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees working with faculty in the schools of medicine, nursing, and health professions.
Students are encouraged to present the results of their research at Health Sciences Research Day, held each fall at MU's medical school. This day-long symposium is filled with poster presentations by undergraduate, graduate and professional students, with prizes awarded to the three best presentations in each student category. In addition, special Deans' Awards will be presented for the most outstanding research conducted by trainees from the schools of nursing, health professions and medicine. Holders of academic titles are not eligible for this competition, except through mentoring roles.--2014 Call for Abstracts for Poster Presentations.
