Audience
Ben Ertman '18 serves on the organizing committee for an upcoming conference and wanted us to let you know about this great opportunity. Unfortunately it does overlap a bit with our planned PSYC, NEUR & NSM Spring Research Poster Symposium (4/25 @ 11:30am-1pm) so anyone presenting at that for PSYC206, PSYC323 or another course would need to request to present (if interested in presenting) at the 9am session of the conference.
