Undergraduate Research Forum
Undergraduate students conducting research in the life sciences — both within the LSI and across U-M — can participate in the the LSI Undergraduate Research Forum. This group provides undergraduate researchers with opportunities to present articles from primary literature to their peers, engage in thoughtful discussions about responsible research conduct and ethics and develop critical skills to more effectively conduct and communicate their research within the life sciences.
