Physiology Research Symposium Spotlights Wide Array of Topics
The Physiology Research Symposium spotlighted the diverse range of important research underway by students, fellows, and research associates of the Department of Physiology on May 3. The presentations ranged from the non-invasive mapping of cortical microvasculature dilation to the impairment of placental development caused by maternal undernourishment. “A critical component of scientific inquiry is the opportunity to engage with an informed community who will scrutinize our methods, reasoning, and evidence,” said Christopher Leonard, Ph.D., center, interim chair and professor of the Department of Physiology. “Our annual research symposium provides this opportunity for our talented students and fellows who presented their ongoing research, in various stages of development, to the entire physiology community. This was a great opportunity for everyone to catch up with our neighbor’s work and to provide feedback to help advance their science."
