This year 11 student USS research posters were nominated for the NSU-AAUW Research Award. This recognition is awarded to the student research presentation that best supports our mission of promoting gender equity for women and girls through education, advocacy, and research.

The student research posters were truly wonderful and a testament to the hard work and dedication of the students. Each poster was a unique and creative representation of the research that the students had conducted, and it was clear that they had put a great deal of thought and effort into the design and presentation of their work. The posters were informative, visually appealing, and engaging, and it was clear that the students had a deep understanding of their research topics. Overall, the student research posters were an impressive display of the students’ knowledge, skills, and passion for their fields of study.

The 2023 award goes to Karen Jurado-Lopez, Shreya Madhudi, and Niral Paveen. Their faculty sponsor was Christi Navarro, Ph.D.

Their work is titled Postpartum Depression: The Effects of Misdiagnosis on Maternal and Infant Health.  

Our judges had a difficult task to select just one, when all the posters nominated were outstanding. Special thanks to our judges: Tais Barreto, Sarah Divine, Julie Garcia, Sarena Hicks, Laura Macias, Katelynn Sell, Rita Shea, and Randi Sims.
