In a collaborative effort between the University of Pennsylvania MRSEC (LRSM), the University of Delaware MRSEC (CHARM), and the University of Delaware Energy Frontier Research Center (CPI), 36 summer undergraduate research scholars engaged in a day designed to encourage connection and science exploration through shared experiences across MRSECs.
The day consisted of an overview of MRSECs and the collaborative nature of the network of institutions, a workshop on branding and networking, and closed with a quick-fire competition, which served as an opportunity for each student to not only further develop their science communication skills ahead of culminating presentations but to also provide each student with a platform to showcase the amazing work being conducted over the summer.
