Jon Gallagher placed second in the Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience / German Graduate Schools of Neuroscience Poster Award annual competition. To be eligible for this award, the nominee must currently be an undergraduate student. Each nominee must be sponsored by a FUN Member whose dues are current. Each sponsor may nominate only one student. For a poster to be considered, it must have been accepted for presentation by the nominee at the FUN Social and Poster Session at the Society for Neuroscience Meeting. The posters are judged on methodological approach, degree of difficulty, solidity/verifiability of data, contribution to "new knowledge", design and layout of the poster, and the ability of the student to answer questions regarding the project.
We are also pleased to announce that Jon was also accepted into the MSU-COM medical program.
