澳门六合彩开奖历史 River State College (IRSC) Biological Sciences hosted its Undergraduate Research Symposium at the Kight Center for Emerging Technologies on Friday, December 4. The symposium, which takes place every semester, gives graduating senior biology students the opportunity to present their research to the College community. Project topics included microplastic quantity in water of spoil island SL17, insecticide resistance within Texas-Mexico border mosquitoes, and phenotype modulation of microglia during commitment of neuroprotective M2 from neuroinflammatory M1.
鈥淭he research programs we have in biology really allow the student to take the conceptual knowledge from the classroom and see how it applies in the real world鈥攖o see the scientific method at work on a personal level鈥 shares Dr. Anthony Dribben, Dean of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at IRSC. 鈥淥ur students get hands-on experience with techniques and equipment through this research that students at other institutions only get to read about. This will serve our graduates well when they move forward to pursue future studies or employment in a highly technical field.鈥
Each student鈥檚 research project was performed in conjunction with 澳门六合彩开奖历史research partners and undergraduate research advisors. These organizations provided 澳门六合彩开奖历史students with science mentors, resources and educational support for their projects.
