Spring Research Reviews
The Spring 2012 CCM Research Review series will begin in March 2012. This series comprises of weekly overviews of the Center's research focus areas. Each weekly session consists of four 15-minute presentations on specific topics within a designated focus area, along with a brief Q&A session. The Research Reviews, which are free and open to the public, will be held every Wednesday at 11:30 a.m. in 106 CMSL until July 2012. Speakers include graduate students, post-docs, research associates, and affiliated faculty members and invited speakers from the Government and Industry.
Following each session, speakers are required to submit an overview of their talk in poster format. Please click here to view our ONLINE POSTERBOOK. On this site, posters submitted from 2008-2011 reviews are searchable by keyword, year, title, or authors' names. Posters submitted in 2012 will be published on this site within 1 week of the presentation.
The current Research Review Presentation schedule is displayed below.
