Undergraduate biology research symposium at Union South

More than 340 undergraduate biology students will present their research at the Introductory Biology Research Symposium on Thursday, May 5, from 5-7 p.m. in Varsity Hall in the new Union South.

The showcase, held at the end of each spring semester, is one of the largest undergraduate symposia in the nation. As part of the Introductory Biology class offered through the UW–Madison zoology department, undergraduate students are paired with faculty and graduate students to pursue a research project over nearly five months.

The symposium is free and open to the public.
