Register now for the 2014 Student Research Showcase
Register by March 10 for the 2014 Sigma Xi Student Research Showcase. This competition will be held March 17-23 to give undergraduate, graduate, and advanced high school students first-hand experience in presenting their research. And they don’t have to leave home—the showcase is held online, which saves travel time and expense.
Participants receive feedback from professional scientists and prizes are awarded for the best presentations. If you’re not a student, you can volunteer as a judge! Learn more on the Student Research Showcase page.
