2019 SPIN student Vicky Yanouskiy earns 2nd place in UAB EXPO Awards
Vicky Yanouskiy, one of the ten undergraduate students participating in this year’s NSF-funded Summer Program in Neurobiology, earned 2nd place in the "Biology and Life Sciences” poster presentations at the UAB EXPO this week. Vicky is spending her summer working in the lab of Dr. Rita Cowell under the tutelage of graduate student Stephanie Boas, also author of the award-winning poster. Congrats to all!
The Summer Expo showcases the research and service learning work produced by UAB undergraduates and other students in UAB summer research programs, summer REU programs, and other summer opportunities. For a complete list of winners see Expo Winners.
