Anisha won the Undergraduate Symposium’s Poster Award!

Last March, Anisha was awarded the UROP mini-grant for her original research on the effects of aging on short-term and long-term memory. Two months later, she was ready to present the results of her first study: “Aging Effects on Perceptual and Conceptual Memory: Transformations from Short-term to Long-term Memory”. She presented a poster at Undergraduate Symposium, along with 235 other undergraduate students. For her poster, she received the UROP Poster award, an award sponsored by the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program, Office for Research and Innovation. You can see the poster here. She will use this award to travel and attend conferences. Great work, Anisha!
