In 2017, The Pam And Rolando Del Maestro Family Undergraduate Student Research Competition Awards – named for Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada’s co-founders – were established to promote scientific innovation among Canadian undergraduate students.

This undergraduate research competition is an opportunity to showcase your work to other scientists, researchers, and professionals attending the Research Symposium.

A letter of intent is due by Friday, August 2, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. (EST).
