UWP to host Research and Poster Day

PLATTEVILLE - The University of Wisconsin-Platteville will be hosting a Research and Poster Day on March 29. The event will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the University North and South Rooms and the Platteville East and West Rooms of the Pioneer Student Center on the UWP campus. The event is free and everyone is welcome to attend.

Research and Poster Day recognizes the efforts and commitment of UWP faculty, staff and students involved in research and scholarly/creative activities. Participating individuals will present a wide variety of displays including photographs, slide shows, videotapes, presentation manuscripts, computer displays, equipment demonstrations and published articles.

"Research and Poster Day allows the university community to be more aware of the research activities being conducted on campus. It is also a means for students to share their work and build graduate and post-graduate opportunities," commented Kathryn Lomax of the Office of Sponsored Programs.

This year, UWP will have 22 participating students including: Amanda Brown, Samantha Schuettpelz, Mallorie McDowell, Maria Lutzke and Melissa Jones of psychology; Jacob Bubolz of agriculture; Katherine Campbell, Josh Duran, Tony Gregerson, Peter Hedlund, Elaine Hildebrandt, Craig Hineline, Lucas Johnson, Morgan Lowery, James Newman, Mark Sala, Jake Smith, Anne Turner and Sarah Whiteman of chemistry and engineering physics; Mackenzie Hellert, Daniel Hoesly and Tricia Ostby of biology.
