Update on Best Research Poster Winners
On Friday, April 8, EEB project course students participated in the 2022 EEB Undergraduate Research Fair in-person for the first time in 3 years! The annual fair gives students a chance to present their research projects to their peers and the larger EEB U of T community.
The passion, camaraderie and dedication of our students is incredible, matched only by their knowledge and enthusiasm for the diverse and interesting research they took part in over the course of the year.
Please give special compliments to the winners of the Corey A. Goldman Prize for Best Research Posters in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. The award is named after former Associate Undergraduate Chair Corey A. Goldman who devoted many years to developing the robust, interactive and engaging undergraduate program at EEB.
