Over the past several months, 76 students in Clark’s STEM Summer Undergraduate Research Program worked alongside faculty to explore topics ranging from materials chemistry to fungi and dung beetles to enzyme reaction mechanisms and beyond. 🧑‍🔬🧬🧫🔭

“The goal of this program is to build a community of undergraduate scientists on campus,” says Associate Professor Don Spratt, director of STEM summer undergraduate research opportunities, who organizes the annual program. “Having shared workshops and opportunities to learn from each other is the key to building a community of learners, which is what Clark is all about.”

Last week, the students presented their research during a final poster session and BBQ in Tilton Hall. Take a look at these photos from the event and please join us in congratulating these talented and accomplished Clarkies! 👏
